Cassper is also part of the second year of Sprite’s global music programme, Sprite Limelight, which saw him collaborate with OneRepublic’s Ryan Tedder, TimesLIVE reported.
“I’m proud to be part of the Sprite Limelight programme 2023, representing African music, representing our sound, our culture, and expressing myself in this new way collaborating with the legend that is Ryan Tedder.”
I know that feeling when the heat hits, the pressures of life feel like they are on, we all feel it. Music helps me tackle that, to keep cool, so I just really connected with the whole concept of the Sprite Limelight programme. It’s dope to be a part of it all,” he said.
