“The company is also responsible for the Eswatini Creators Awards and the House Musiq Festival, which brings together the best performers in the country and beyond.
“The Dance Music Summit is a skills development agency run by myself and Lady Sakhe that aims to upskill and educate anyone interested in the dance music industry.”
