When he finally jumped on stage at 9pm he was accompanied by his former band member, Daniel Tsankane of Matsieng Traditional Group. Although the main intention was to introduce new singles from his newly recorded album titled Magana Mokgwa that was not to be on the night. The crowd who had flocked the area did not want to listen to the new DT. They wanted a ‘blast from the past’.DT who has just spent four years behind bars for a six year jail term, tried to sample out the new singles, but the crowd simply cold-shouldered him. But his hit song Lebo, hit the right cords as die-hard fanatics, who had filled the venue, sprang to on their feet dancing.
Apparently, they had been pining for the song, callng and screaming for its rendition. But DT seemed to go by the mantra: “Save best for last” DT was also not shy to exhibit his trademark phathisi dance skills, receiving loud cheers from the crowd.
When asked how it felt to be on stage as a free man since 2010 DT gushed, “Words cannot even come close to explain how I feel. It was amazing. The crowd was amazing”.
Although Showbiz could not determine whether he would be going on a countrywide tour, it has been confirmed, however, that his latest offering will drop mid-March. The album is ready and he is only adding the final touches, accordfing to the grapevines..
