IN CONVERSATION WITH, K.O

Loading player...
IN CONVERSATION WITH, K.O real name Ntokozo Mdluli—is a game-changer in the South African music scene. Bursting onto the scene as one-third of the iconic rap group Teargas, he later redefined himself as a solo artist who not only broke records but also ushered us into a new genre: Skhanda rap. His lyrical finesse, street-smart branding, and ear for production have kept him relevant across generations.

A trendsetter and businessman, he’s the co-founder of Cashtime Life and the lifestyle brand Skhanda World, using music, fashion, and culture to create a full-circle movement. With hits like Sete and Skhandaville Freestyle, he continues to adapt without compromising his identity. Now with his fifth solo album, Phara City, K.O cements his legacy—not just as a rapper, but as an architect of modern African hip-hop.
