Pics! DBN Gogo’s ‘Whats Real’ Album Launch. Mandisa Radebe professionally known as DBN Gogo, is a South African DJ and music producer. Born Durban and raised in Pretoria, she garnered local attention following release of her debut single “Khuza Gogo”, which was certified platinum in South Africa.
DBN Gogo hosted her first album launch at the hub of creatives in Braamfontein on Thursday night. This was a perfect venue of choice because Braam remains the home of creatives. Shwa was the first person to arrive at the event, but I should have known that African time would apply. The set-up was executed with precision, very pretty and fairytale-like. The theme was strictly black or red.
The event was filled with artists, creatives and content creators, such as Khanyisa Jaceni, Pabi Cooper, Mikhale Jones, Unlimited Soul and Zodwa Wabantu, to mention a few. The open bar kept attendees happy. The hospitality was very receiving, and yes, the finger food served was delicious.
DBN Gogo said: “We need to open this space for the youth, I don’t plan on being on stage forever, the youth are the future. I did not have equipment when I started, but I am happy that my Zikode record label created that platform for the youth.”
