Children

Musical career
As a young boy, he pursued his primary education at the Sebone Primary School. He later managed to join highschool where he was a student at Magoza High School.
Even as a teenager, his love for music had started to manifest. As a result, Monada did not finish his 8th grade as he dropped out to follow his passion for music. Given to his young age then, it sounded absurd, but that made him the star he is today.
After dropping from high school due to the lack of adequate funds, he ventured into music composition. This was back in 2005, where he did both music and dancing. What’s more, King Monada music is based on his Khelobedu language.
Khelobedu enabled him to communicate and get wide fan-base from his local area easily. His musical journey was, however, not easy as he was based in the rural Limpopo region, a place where artists like him did not have the adequate facilities and opportunities for exploring music.
“This genre of music is called Bolobedu house music, but many people do not really understand it. And musicians who are doing this kind of music in the rural areas do not have strong connections in the industry,” he explained.
