Mimz returns to live music to heal

Born Godiraone Mimi Moje, (29) Mimz Rauku – as she trades on stage – said she has been in a bad space lately and desperately needed to sing her songs. She shared that she survived a gruesome rape in December and the pain was exacerbated by not being able to do a music show because of the Coronavirus restrictions.

“With the passing of Sasa Klaas, it freaked me out. I have been writing this music since 2017. Last year was traumatic for me. I was raped December 12. That guy had a gun on m face. I kept thinking, if I die ke a go poka. I had written music which is the only voice I have,” she said.
