THE second edition of the annual Keys To The City lifestyle event lived up to expectations by treating scores of revelers to an eclectic mix of funky house music and Hip Hop beats at the Mambo’s Restaurant in Maseru over the weekend.
The likes of DJ Capital, DJ Slique, DJ Dimples, PH, Shaxe and Venushka (all from South Africa) set Maseru ablaze alongside local acts Smooth, Dee Pee, NINE24, Trybz, Katz Lee, Hunky D and El’ Asla who also performed to a rapturous applause from the appreciative crowd.
Dee Pee and El’ Asla, who were the only female performers, brought the house down with their gripping renditions of popular club anthems.
Keys To The City is the brainchild of the quartet of Bokang Khoarai, Mabusetsa Sakhele, Hlony Mafereka and Mimi Setlaba aimed at catering for the savvy Hip Hop-loving youths.
And the revelers certainly demonstrated their appreciation by filling up the venue well before performances started, helping themselves to the flavoured beers that were served up as free, welcome drinks.
Held under the tagline “I got the keys to unlock the city” (echoing American DJ and Producer, DJ Khaled’s I Got The Keys hit), the party went on until the early hours of Sunday morning.
