In recent years, the South African hip-hop scene has been steadily gaining momentum, thanks to the emergence of young and talented artists who are taking the industry by storm. One of these rising stars is Thato Bonolo Maboea, better known by her stage name Mastafari.
Born in Soweto in 2003, Mastafari grew up listening to her father's favorite R&B, soul, and hip-hop artists, which ignited her passion for music. She started by rapping along to her favorite songs before eventually writing and recording her own music.
Mastafari's talent remained a secret until she participated in a cypher at her school in 2018, which propelled her into the spotlight. She released her first single, "A Bunch of Fari," shortly after, which garnered attention from local producers and studios.
In 2019, Mastafari released her second single, "S.O.A.L.T.," which earned her a nomination at the Ivory Park Hip Hop Awards and the "Best Lyricist" award. She continued to release more music and gained media attention, including features on Jenny Love's blog and interviews on radio stations.
Despite facing challenges such as a lack of funds to record music, Mastafari persevered and continued to create and share her music on social media. Her dedication to her craft and her fans paid off when she won the Boston Media House Talent Show in April 2023.
Mastafari's music is not only entertaining but also has a positive message that aims to inspire and uplift her listeners. Her lyrics reflect her life experiences, and she uses her music to share her story and connect with her audience. Her talent, hard work, and dedication have already made her a force to be reckoned with in the South African music industry.
