My Interview with Mr. No Hype, Just Hope! by Jackie Tsiga

First I would like to congratulate Alexander Star on the success that he has achieved in the music industry and after listening to his music I would say he is a conscious musician who has been inspiring through his uplifting and relatable message in his songs which is very rare in this lil Wayne, David Guetta era. Alexander Star has taken a moral stance to not follow the money or the glorified image and I think that is the reason for his longevity in the music business. It was my honour to interview him for this blog because he is one of my role models.

JT: Please describe yourself?

AS: Mr No hype, Just hope.

JT: Please explain what you mean by “No Hype, Just Hope”?

AS: Hype is the fast food music that is all over the main stream today, the manufactured pop with no nutritional value. This is the music that has the catchy chorus that we all sing but have no idea what it means to po-po-po-poker face anyone? Just HOPE is the positive music with no gimmicks that speaks to an individual and gives a positive energy; food for the soul through music.

JT: How does it feel to empower others through your music because I have heard your music and it is quite inspirational?

AS: The fact that I speak to people through my music is what makes me feel good. My passion is performing so that people aren’t necessarily dancing but they are listening. The reason why I do what I do is for influence so I can influence people in a positive way.

Alexander Star has been an ambassador of AFRclothing and since Kuda explained the mission statement of organisation he immediately wanted to be involved. AFR Clothing has created a legacy to educate children in Africa and have successfully done so in South Africa and Zimbabwe. Being an AFR Clothing ambassador is an honour for Alexander Star because he believes that we; as humans all share the same earth and it is our duty to help the unfortunate and AFR Clothing’s endeavour to educate is an excellent cause.

Education is important and Alexander Star actually made a decision to return to college after years in the music industry. In his autobiography he spoke of how college helped him to better himself and in the interview he explained how it broadened his perspective in communications. He wanted to learn about the theories and processes of communication; whether it is verbal, non-verbal or written and presentation of projects.

I have to say I loved interviewing Alexander Star because he is down to earth; his music truly reflects his personality and his positive energy. I felt like I was speaking to someone I had known forever and his unique gift of charisma has been the main contribution to his success in the music industry. He has been in the game for many years and yet is still relevant and will continue to make a difference in the future. We look forward to working with him in future AFR Clothing projects.
