“I am so humbled to be the new brand ambassador for Billiato. I feel as though this is the beginning of many beautiful things for me and my career,” said Toss.
“Thank you to Cassper Nyovest and the entire team at Billiato for this honour. I am thrilled to be part of this magnificent team, and I can’t wait to expand the taste of wealth with my fans.”
The fast-rising talent continues to make strides in the amapiano music scene.
Entrepreneur and rapper Nyovest, real name Refiloe Phoolo, said his team is looking forward to working with Toss.
Explaining the name behind the Balliato brand, Nyovest said: “It is in fact my nickname, taken from the word Billion. It is also deeply rooted from the culture found in the Vaal, as they [Vaal residents] consider themselves as Italians, so it’s ghetto fabulous.
“We are delighted to welcome and introduce my brother Toss to the Billiato family. With this venture, the goal is to take Billiato to even greater heights.”
