Legendary gospel singer Rebecca Malope has shared some words of wisdom saying young people should not be blinded by fame but must stay focus and work hard on their goals.
Popular known as Sis Ribs, Rebecca has been in the music industry for over 30 years and also serves as a mentor for many musicians.
Speaking to ZAlebs, Rebecca said nothing beats working hard, setting goals and sticking to them.
“Honestly, nothing beats hard work and being focused on your goals and just being determined at all times. God is always there to guide you, all the way. Also, I’d like to say to the young ones that they must not be blinded by fame, fame is very dangerous.
“That’s why sometimes we see young people in the industry getting frustrated and doing wrong things because they want to get into this industry just because they wanted to be famous.
“Come to the industry because you want to showcase your art, come into the industry with the mind-set of wanting to make yourself and fellow South Africans proud. Make the world recognise South Africa for its talent.
“Also, educate yourself about the important things like contracts, sustaining yourself in the industry, and again improving your craft,” Rebecca added.
