Police minister Bheki Cele congratulated Molomo for his incredible feat. Cele said the force cannot wait to have Molomo “back in office to continue serving our men and women in blue”.
I’ll do them both, I will still go to work, I’ll still do my music at the same time I don’t think there will be any form of distractions between the two.

Molomo said the message behind his debut solo single, Phanda mirrors his journey to winning the competition.
The track Phanda directly translated to English means hustle and was written by record label Kalawa Jazmee.
It’s basically a song about hustling, you hustle people will laugh at you eventually you get successful, so it was more reflecting to my story as well…
