A Go Raptjwe Nights to resuscitate local rap music

In an interview with the show's founder, Thabo Rantao, also famed as Touch Motswak Tswak, he explained that A Go Repjwe brings together talented rappers, producers, DJs, and music lovers under one roof for a night of pure hip-hop energy. He said the event showcases artistry, lyricism, and performance while creating an authentic atmosphere for fans to connect with the culture.

"The inspiration came from the need to provide rappers with a consistent platform to perform, grow, and be appreciated for their craft. Botswana’s rap industry is vibrant but often overlooked, so we wanted to create a space that amplifies artists’ voices while offering the audience a true hip-hop experience. It is hosted every Wednesday at the Matrix Lounge Garden in Gaborone, Block 6. We have chosen a central and accessible venue that complements the urban, creative vibe of the show. Our target audience is broad, from hardcore hip-hop fans to casual music lovers. We aim to attract young people, creatives, and professionals who appreciate live performances, lyricism, and culture," he said.
