Masego

Masego is an act on the Starverb influence map. Their sound grew out of Fetty Wap, John P. Kee, Austin Brown, Shenseea and Cab Calloway.

They run in the same orbit as Lucky Daye, Alex Isley, Leon Thomas, BLK ODYSSY and GoldLink, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Sofia Coll, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation.
