I am so ready for 2021 and have several hits in the bag. I therefore plan to drop an album of the year and song of the year,” Malome Vector also told his fans on social media platforms.

The songbird has so far only released popular singles after signing a deal with a notable record company in South Africa.
“Given his musical appeal, we see him netting serious endorsement deals in the near future. Malome Vector is yet to win a prestigious award because of his unique music talent and fine voice,” says the artiste’s music devotee Selloane Moletsane of Maseru West.
Another skilled home brewed musician Mthibo, shares similar views about Malome Vector’s aptitude as an artiste.
“Not many famous artistes in Africa have gone that far. Nowadays language is no longer a barrier for one to be nominated in international awards. Malome Vector needs to acknowledge his nomination as a stepping stone in order to excel in his career and make Lesotho more proud,” he also said.
