Mokokoma Mokhonoana
“We can ruin our enjoyment of a song by finding a translation of the lyrics into a language we understand.”
Mokokoma Mokhonoana

“If you make music, don’t give up if you’re not making money, getting any recognition or not getting good feedback. You were doing it wrong in the first place if you thought that. Do it for yourself..bleed the thoughts out on that canvas in musical form.”
CruciA
