According to TimesLIVE, Cassper became well-known for his #FillUp concerts that took place around South Africa. He filled The Dome in 2015, Orlando Stadium in 2016, FNB Stadium in 2017, Moses Mabhida Stadium in 2018, the Royal Bafokeng Stadium in 2019 and Mmabatho Stadium in 2022.
He also revealed that late rapper, HHP, was the one who inspired him to fill The Dome and said HHP had given him some life lessons too.
“‘I always say what I could’ve learnt in 10 years I learnt in the two years I was with HHP. The reason I was unfu*kwithable is because I was right next to best, that was the greatest. That’s the most commercially appealing artist. Nobody did brands like him, nobody crossed over to white people like him,” Cassper said when he appeared on L-Tido’s podcast.
The rapper has enjoyed great success this year with the release of his album, Solomon, which debuted at number one on iTunes. His hit song, 018, also hit one million streams on his YouTube page.
