In 2015 Top Virus released their first Album titled “First Attack” which they sold in the street and taxi ranks around KZN, Having the freshest swag, they also gained popularity because of the way they dress and look.
“We made our name from selling our music in the street, what pushed us even more is that people are so supportive, they love our music and they buy our music” Pillos quoted
Talent alone is not enough, the group potential attracted an investor who’s also currently the group manager, Mthokozisi Ngcobo.
