| M.O.D//Ples J//Mzico (MMP FAMILY) Experiencing a Mokoro ride in Maun |
I have to admit that when MMP Family made their mark
in the music industry, I wasn’t much of a follower because I didn’t know them.
Even though they had a song “Tlala ka lepantsola” which wasn’t that bad, I wasn’t hooked. For some reason I thought
they were fly by night artists who were just looking for fame and maybe hoping
to score some females while at it.. Hey…This still happens in the 21st
century. Then came the collaboration with the already established artist Mosako on “Wena o mang?’and I believe that’s
when most people started taking notice. Who are these guys? Slowly and slowly
they garnered a following and “Tlala ka lepantsola” somehow made a way back
into our hearts. The sound was Kwaito and surely they were bringing it back.
The year 2012 saw them scoop the “Best
Kwaito”award at the BOMU Music Awards
for their album “Mo Spacing” which I haven’t heard. Its there but I only know
one or two songs from it. Now the year
is 2014 and they are back with their second album #LESSON1

Performing In Maun: September 2014
|
So I had a chance to hear what the three young men have been working on and I have to admit that
#Lesson1 is going to be a hell of an album. The album is a fusion of kwaito with some elements of hip hop and splash. This goes on to show that this guys can be given any beat and they will deliver. The highly anticipated album is due for release end of September and features hits like
'Problem Child' and
'Lebala Ka Nna' which are receiving massive airplay in our local radio stations.. 2014 sure looks like a good year for this childhood friends who are determined to make a mark. We cant wait for our first lesson..
