Music industry players honour Masole

Masole died on the early hours of Valentine’s Day at Princess Marina Hospital in Gaborone aged 62. One of the first people to take the stage to pay respect to Masole was mentee and industry leading female promoter Zenzele Hirschfeld who described Masole as a father, mentor, and friend. Hirschfeld who also lost her mother the same day Masole died said she met Masole when she was managing Vee Mampeezy. “He liked to change numbers and if there was one person who knew how to negotiate was this man,” she revealed. 

 “Tops is the richest man that I have ever known, I said rich because he was rich in soul and has given to this country than any other promoter. We are here to talk about a great man that this nation never even recognised,” she said.  Hirschfeld recalled how when they bestowed honours on Masole when he retired in 2019, the government did not see the need to appreciate the event. She said Masole made Maun what it is therefore she asked Minister of Youth Empowerment, Sport and Culture Development Tumiso Rakgare and his government to make sure that they named an art centre in honour of Masole.
