"At the moment, I don't want to talk about those challenges because it hurt me and made me hate making music," he said.

"During my break, something always told me I had unfinished business and a missing chapter in my music career. Hence, Chapter X is the missing chapter in my music career."

Understanding changes in the music scene, DJ Fisherman decided to return with a new sound to fit into the current market.

"I know many people loved my style, but that was a long time ago, and many things have changed, so I shouldn't stick to the old style while the music is evolving.

"But there's a song I recorded with Mampintsha before my break, and felt it can fit in the current market, and it's the only one featured on my album as a bonus song," he said.

Before his hiatus, DJ Fisherman was a leading producer at Afrotainment, a record label owned by DJ Tira, where he produced many award-winning songs.
