Kabo Morebodi, also known as Solo Otto, is making waves in the music scene after his historic Grammy Awards nomination. From humble beginnings in Gaborone to being an accomplished music producer who is recognised internationally, he talks to Mmegi Correspondent BOIKANYO MATHONSI about a journey that is rooted in the true love for music
