Mfana Kah Gogo Opens Up About Going Back To School To Complete His Grade 12. Mfana kah Gogo, who is in school at Fundinduku Secondary School in Tafelkop, near Groblersdal in Limpopo, started out singing gospel at church. Since his uncle was a hip-hop singer, though he never became famous, Mfana kah Gogo developed interest in the genre. He says it was only in December that he started singing Amapiano music. Since then he has composed songs that can fit in two albums
The star is 18 years old as of 2022. Since he is still at school, the singer plans to balance both school and singing by focusing on his studies during the week and do music on weekends. Speaking to Daily Sun, Mfana Ka Gogo whose real name is Sipho Mbonambi, said he wants to inspire his fellow schoolmates at Fundinduku Secondary in Castlekop, Nteke, southern KZN. “I’ve made it to music before I finish high school. But I still have dreams outside music. I want to become a brilliant and successful businessman. That’s why I decided not to be overwhelmed by fame and quit school. Our late president Nelson Mandela said education is a powerful weapon that we can use to change the world.
The rising star, who recently released a song Jabula, said that although school won’t disturb his music, he will make sure that he manages his time well.“My aim is to get top marks. So if I have too much school work, I won’t have a choice but to decline bookings and limit my studio time. Grade 12 is the most important class because it gives you keys to your future. So I’ll make sure that I give my books most of my time and give my time to music,” he said.
His music is inspired by his own life, life in general while touching on the good and bad that is happening in the world. “My music is a reflection of my life and how I was raised by my grandmother. God is good for protecting me and those who are happy, so that people can be. I have so much respect for my grandmother, she also raised her six grandkids who some are orphans and made sure we get everything. I will never forget that she used her pension money to make sure we get everything we want,” he shared.
