TikTok has revolutionised the way young people make a living. It has become one of the most popular social media platforms where users are making waves and turning their passions into profits.

Vusi Reshumela Qwabe, from the Endulwini section in Thembisa, has taken TikTok by storm! Most people know him as the man behind Hleka Uze Ukhale PART 1. However, his success doesn’t stop there. His growing confidence led Vusi to focus on content creation and take his career even further this year.

After posting an impromptu vosho performance for his mother’s birthday that went viral, with viewers responding positively with likes and comments across social media platforms, he shared: “I didn’t know where to begin or start displaying my talent which began as a happy one.”

With determination and resilience heading into 2022, we’ll be seeing growth areas within Vusi’s career journey before long.

“Seeing comedians constantly pushing inspired me to start. While pushing content on TikTok, I realised I could sell my t-shirts,” he said.

Vusi has created a new online store, selling unique clothing items to help people express their own individual styles. Through his videos on TikTok, he seeks not only to entertain but also to inspire others and share valuable advice for success. His ultimate dream is to be recognised in Thembisa and beyond - all while learning from some of his heroes like Skhumba Hlophe and Tshiamo from the Gomora series. With determination and innovative business acumen driving him forward, Vusi hopes everyone can unlock their true potential.
