Hot new track alert – Mmamotse by former My Star winner, Motlha

This week when one of my colleagues told me about this hot new track taking Botswana by storm called Mammotse, I just had to check it out! The track has got Batswana up and down the country in something of a tizzy and having listened to it, I can confirm the song is a solid, ridiculously catchy offering from Motlha, the talented 2015 My Star winner. Motlha Mompe won the Season 9 of the local singing contest, My Star at the age of 21. He stormed to victory following a rousing performance of Sia’s Chandelier – not the easiest of songs to sing! –  earning him a hearty applause AND standing ovation from the audience. The Mmadinare-born star is well on the path to carving out a sizzling career as Botswana’s latest Afro-Jazz musician. He’s definitely one to watch.
