Local singer Lloyiso becomes 1st South African to join Republic Records

Briefly News previously reported that the local singer is the first South African artist to get signed Republic Records. After falling short of winning the singing completion Idols SA, he continued to post covers of popular songs and his original songs on social media.

This led him to getting a contract with Republic Records. The artist took to social media to announce this big milestone in his career. Before announcing it on social media, the artist first kept the news to himself and only shared it with close family members and friends when things got finalised.
