Die to live eternally

Do you ever wonder what the world is going to be like after you die? What will they do? Listen to your music more. Speak of you as if you were a close friend Miss you when they never knew you.

When Micheal Jackson died, I thought it was a lie, because you know he was full of stunts. I remember when Freakie Tah was shot, I was so touched, I was in my tweens and admired everything my older brother did, meaning, all the music he listened to, I thought was super dope. I walked into the living room in our old home in Lobatse and said: ‘Tseli, jaanong ba bolaile Freakie Tah. Ka goreng jaanong?’

My brother looked at me, and continued to fiddle with the video machine, shrugged his shoulders and said: I don’t know. And then when Left Eye passed away; I was on tour with the marimba band in the US. It was a coldish morning and the radio was playing in our host’s home. In the bathroom. I was touched. Super touched. Like I knew her. I got to the tour bus and was mortified, moping all day. I told my bandmates of the tragedy and they had the same distant reaction my brother had.

Congratulations Anicia Gaothuse!

Each of the 10 beautiful young women had supporters...
