Kwesta to fly the flag high in Dakar

Kwesta jetted off to Dakar, Senegal earlier this week to represent SA at the 30th Commemoration of: The Dakar Conference. 

During the Apartheid regime the conference provided a platform for the ANC to discuss strategies to bring about change in SA. 

Kwesta said it was a proud moment for him to be attending the commemoration celebrations. 

"Now even a rapper from Katlehong who dropped Sway's Freestyle of the Year so far... against the most impossible odds can trace back such a feat to the city of Dakar and how its shaped the history of South Africa," he said. 

During a recent interview with TshisaLIVE Kwesta said he hoped his achievements would help inspire kids from the township to work hard towards their dreams despite the odds.
