Talented, captivating and versatile, Freddy XL is a hip hop artist who may well be on his way to claiming his place in the Hip Hop game.

Khumoetsile Alfred Moleele (aka Freddy XL) was born in Hammanskraal and moved to Pretoria at the age of 7. Freddy started listening to hip hop as a young boy but it wasn’t until he was in high school that he really developed his love for the art.

Freddy started out his career at the age of 18 back home in Hammanskraal. He recorded his first few singles with fellow schoolmate Kid Hype, the duo was called Paper boys, it didn’t last very long. Freddy went on to record tracks with a couple more friends. It wasn’t until a few songs later that Freddy joined his current stable QCI entertainment where he’s recorded a bunch of songs with fellow artists Young B, Luv King, Ghost, Global and OT. Freddy XL and Young B started recording their 1^st project together released a couple of singles and had their 1^st radio single called “Hands in the air” featuring and produced by LuvKing which has gotten a good response from the people in their home town.

Freddy and Young B went on to drop several more songs (including Legendary, Blowin loud…) as singles and didn’t drop the project. Freddy then released his first single titled ‘I Miss You Bad’ which was produced by Lyph and was well received by listeners.

In 2013 on the 17^th of September (which was on his birthday) Freddy XL dropped his single Precious Gold featuring Global and Luv King produced by Kae em of VAM. The song got a great response from on social networks and got nominated in 3 categories in the Pretoria music awards for Best New Comer, Best Colabo and Best Produced track, along with another song he was featured on titled Only getting started (OGS) by StadiQ Beats which was also in the run up for Best collabo.

Up until recently FreddyXL has been doing a bunch of collaborations as well as working on his own project, he, along with his QCI Ent colleagues have been out and about hosting hip hop shows in their neibourhood in Hammanskraal showcasing their talents as well as giving other up and coming artists a platform to do the same.

Not much of an outdoor person, if he’s not out performing, Freddy finds comfort in and enjoys staying in studio doing what he loves, making music and trying to learn as much as he can about the art.
