He started his music career at age 15 preparing demo CDs, and in the late 1990s adopted the stage name Lekgoa ("white guy" in Sotho language Sotho) singing in the South African kwaito genre of music. In this period, he was signed to Gallo record label, releasing two albums; Basetsana in 1999 and Ngamla Yoba in 2002. In 2005, he adopted the name Snotkop initially as part of a 4-piece boy band, and shortly later a solo act signing with Next Music-record label, and launched his self-titled 2005 debut album Snotkop followed by So Damn Sexy in 2008 and Francois Henning was hier in 2009. With the release of Ek laaik van jol in 2012, he became one of the top selling South African artists in Africa in the Afrikaans language. Well known singles and music video releases include "Song vir my dad", "Dis 'n land", "Hou my stywer vas", "Oppas", "Katrien", "Parapapa" (a remake of Cidinho & Doca hit "Rap das Armas"), "Hoe lykit", "Raak vir my rustig", "Cool soos Koos Kombuis", and "Agter op my fiets". He is also featured in Shine4's "Ramaja", a cover of Glenys Lynne's hit with the same title, in Kurt Darren's hit "Stoomtrein" and in MoniQue's hit "Ek val vir jou", an Afrikaans cover of Waldo's People's "Lose Control", one of several international hits he has covered in the language. Other covers include The Offspring's "Why Don't You Get A Job?", covered as "Kry jouself by die werk" and Junior e Leonardo's "Rap das Armas", covered as "Parapapa", but with unrelated lyrics.
