As Toxic As They Come

Mpumalanga born, Zakhele Lekhuleni, known to you as “Toxic”, hails from Nelspruit aka NelCity the city that sleeps no more! Coming from a musical family, it was inevitable that this 23 year old ended up pursuing a career in music. After getting good reviews at the tender age of 7, for his stage acting, he has focused on his education and music.

His first recording was in 2004 with a group he had formed with his friends. Working in a studio setting opened his eyes to numerous things, like how the beat they had was under standard. This led to him producing his own music which led to him founding his own stable, 256 Productions.

From that day onwards, Toxic honed his skills behind the mic and on production. Some local acts that he has worked with to date include Kaspero and Sdunkero from Groova Records; Stone Krekha from Nativz Squad and Sean Sharell of Tsonga Blooded Productions and numerous up and coming Hip-Hop / R&B artists.

He concluded by announcing that he will only be releasing and album late this year or early next year, he will be writing and producing the entire project himself. The title of his offering has not been finalized as yet however, a promo disc will availed for radio very soon.
