Sal’s flair for entertainment emerged at an early age as he toured the world
with his father, South African jazz icon Hugh Masekela. Sal’s first film
ALEKESAM, which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in 2012, chronicles
his relationship with his father and their connection through music. Sal’s band,

season four premiere of the Showtime hit HOUSE OF LIES. They recently
dropped their new single, “Oh Shante (feat. Too $hort)” which debuted with a
