Biography

D2AMAJOE (Di-thu-a-ma-jwe) is a group initiated as part of Ts’epe Sethuamajoe or the Ts’epe movement established in 2006. It is to a large extent influenced by the holistic Pan- African ideology; instilling confidence, a positive identity, and a sense of purpose within the African personality. Essentially, D2AMAJOE, which conceptually means barrier breakers, was initiated as a voice of Basotho to the African situation. Ever since the dawn of natively patriotic Hip Hop sub-genres such as #Motswako, #SkandiHop, #NewAgeKwaito & #AfricanTrapMovement, many scholars of the culture including D2AMAJOE, were fueled with confidence to embrace their own heritage through Hip Hop. D2AMAJOE were inspired to carry the baton through a Sesotho Hip Hop sub-genre affectionately known as Ts’epe. Musically, D2AMAJOE fuses rap with traditional and modern African flavors of a song to give that original home-brewed sound. In as much as the song is also about fun and dance, which D2AMAJOE incorporates in their music, their focus is more on the expressive aspect of music; celebrating true African leaders, challenging neo-colonialism/imperialism and of course, preaching the ideology, proclaiming a one Africa.
