Last week the star revealed that he has a plan to donate the money to education by the end of his fourth album.

"I will donate at least a hundred million to education. I'm on my second quadrant. After my fourth I'm done. So by that time I will give that money to education," he told UJFM's AB Dacosta in an interview.

But how will he ever reach the milestone if he seems to have fallen off of the face of the earth?

Well, fear not! iFani announced this week that following a brief break he is again available for public shows.

"My bookings are now officially opened. I'm back and ready to kill shows again. I'm ready to share this new light, this new me, this new sound," he wrote in a social media statement.

He also revealed that he has been working with celebrated producer Heavy K on a collaboration that he promises will get the country dancing.

"Heavy K and I have decided to make a song tonight. Just for fun. For the dance floors in PE. In Soweto. In KwaMashu. For Hamaanskraal. For Blawa," he added.

iFani has spoken before of his new resolve and how his music has changed since the release of his last album. The artist has been on a journey of self-discovery since the release went gold in one day and has been giving motivational speeches to educational institutions as part of his new drive.

He recently revealed that following the conclusion of his fourth album he will retire from the music industry.
