Easy B - still the best

Bannye Sesopo, better known to his legion of fans as Easy B, has had the kind of longevity in the entertainment industry that few others in Botswana enjoy. He is undoubtedly a leader in the entertainment world who still has a lot of party left in him.

As a young boy growing up in the dusty streets of Lentswe-Le-Tau in Kweneng District, Sesopo never thought he would make a career out of being a DJ. He says he owes the realisation of this unlikely dream to his former employer, Tony Crazy Disco, who was the owner of Disco City in Broadhurst. Having been in charge of the music equipment, Easy B was motivated to learn how to mix.

"I used to help DJs who were coming in and out of the shop with selecting music to play at their functions. This showed me that I could also do it because I was good with music," he expressed.When asked how he got the name Easy B, he explains how his former boss used to have difficulty pronouncing his first name."Tony could not say Bannye well, so one day he just said, 'I am going to call you Easy B', the B stands for the first letter of my name.  Since then, the name has stuck with me," he reminisces.
