When’s your special day? 

■I was born on tbe 4th of December 198***.  You can guess the last digit. Lol

How would you describe what you do ?

■Well, I do music, The true beauty of music is that it connects people. It has connected me to a lot of people, being on a personal level or professionally. I started as a dj in the early 2000s and in 2011 I released my first single Feafuring Jael Promise MK with the assistance of my brother Mr. Glo Solani Zulu who produced the song. Since then I have pushed up to 5 albums featuring different artist from different countries. Music is a journey and the journey continues.

What sparked your passion for your career? Any unexpected twists?

■Answer: I was inspired by my two late uncles Mr. John Mubyana Mutonga and Motsamai Motsamai Dj Bolley, May Their Souls Continue Resting In Peace. My late uncle Bo Mubyana had a club called Zambezi Night club ( Wooden Bridge today) from the late 90s to early 2000s. So if I remember correctly in the late 2000s on a Saturday the resident dj didn’t show up and I was told to switch on the Club sound and I grabbed the opportunity, from that Night i decided to continue and Mr. Motsamai Motsama i started taking me along to some of his shows around katima mulilo and nearby villages. So we here now and their legacy continues.

Any achievements or projects you’re super proud of?

■ 5 Studio Album is a great achievement, Performing around my beautiful country Namibia and other countries is a blessing ( I have performed in Zambia, Botswana, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Ethiopia, Rwanda and also in United Kingdom ( London, Wolverhampton & Birmingham ).
