While celebrating his daughter Kelello's 16th birthday in 2020, the musician took Mzansi on a stroll through his house.

Mafokate started outside, where green grass surrounded the huge chilling room with large glass doors.

When he got inside, it is not quite clear if the room seen in the video Arthur shared is the living room due to its open-plan design. However, while panning the room full of chairs and tables decorated for Kelello's celebration, a bar counter could be seen, meaning that if it's not a living room, then it's definitely a place Arthur and his family chill in.
