Singer Bensoul is set to leave Sol Generation.

In an interview with Tuko Extra, BenSoul said his contract is almost expiring.

He compared his departure to a lion nursing its young cubs and letting them go to fend for themselves once they are old enough. 

In the jungle, some cubs survive and others do not.

"I’m the jungle male cub, akifika a certain age, wanafukuzwangwa from the pride, wanaambiwa sasa enda ujitafutie. So wanafukuzwangwa wakiwa wengi, wengine wanamake it, na wengine wanakufa in the wilderness," he said.

He said the label has built an empire for his career.

"It’s a beautiful thing. Manze tumekuwa na wao, tumebuild such a beautiful empire."

BenSoul joined Sol Generation in 2019, when Sauti Sol officially launched the record label.
