Watch! Pabi Cooper And Khanyisa Drop MAMA Music Video. Paballo Basetsana Mothapo, better known by her stage name as Pabi Cooper, is a South African dancer and singer best known for her hit tune Isphithiphithi, which features Joocy, Reece Madlisa, and Busta 929.
Pabi Cooper is set to drop the official music video for MAMA with Khanyisa featuring Yumbs and Leabah. Though she dropped the single a few months ago, she has only now decided to drop the accompanying visuals after the track became a hit and well-received by her fans.
Born Paballo Mothapo, Cooper started out as a dancer who performed at small scale concerts. Despite being noted as an entertaining dancer, the multi-talented musician believed there was more to her as a performer than just dancing. That’s when she shunned her imposter syndrome and embarked on a singing career that saw her collaborate with amapiano stars such as Focalistic and Ch’cco.
“Things started panning out for me last year when I first released my song Isphithiphithi… that’s when I became big. I performed on Idols SA and started touring the country. How I grew as an artist blew my mind… I couldn’t believe it. A lot of artists such as the late Mpura and Killa Kau were so excited to see my growth. They would validate my craft every time they saw me.”
Being well on her way to superstardom, Cooper plans to have a clean brand that showcases nothing but her talents. Much like the rules on the soccer pitch, she hopes to abide by the guidelines that will avoid her being a “one hit wonder” by putting in the work and focusing more on being a legitimate artist that’s not driven by fame but by her craft.
