Folk jazz band Sereetsi & The Natives front man Tomeletso Sereetsi says their upcoming sophomore scheduled to come in April would be dedicated to his late father.

The album titled 'Motoko' which is set for release soon will honour the man who honed Sereetsi to a fine point through sounds and words during his youth.

“Motoko is my late father’s first name. The album is a dedication to the man who raised me. He never heard me play a note except years later when my debut CD came out. I am thankful that he did not discourage me from becoming a musician. Although he was obsessed with the need for his children to do well academically and escape poverty, he was open to the possibility of one making a decent living through the arts in the future,” Sereetsi said.

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