Kick starting the countdown to the EP release is, “ONLY IF YOU LIKE THAT” which is Tshego’s ode to sexual consent. On the track, Tshego expresses his sexual desires, his prowess, and makes sure to clarify that he’s only interested in engaging in these intimate acts if the other party is also enthusiastically eager.
