K.O who is often passionately referred to as the SA Hip Hop GOAT (Greatest of All Time) by music fans took to his social media to announce his first ever concert; K.O LIVE AT THE HILL. This will be A NIGHT LIKE NO OTHER that K.O plans to celebrate with ‘those who’ve rocked with him through this journey’ and he has promised to pour his blood, sweat, and pain on that stage come July 29th!
K.O has become a culture icon and one of the most celebrated artists across the African continent and the foremost notable hip hop artist on the continent. His music repertoire is listened to in over 180 countries across the world and he still hungers for more. K.O is intentional about his next phase; to help take South African music to the proverbial global hilltop and it is with this in mind and heart that K.O will host a one night only concert on 29 July 2023 at Constitution Hill, which he has aptly named K.O LIVE AT THE HILL.
Speaking on the concert, this is what K.O had to say:
“Sometimes we get so lost in the thrill of chasing the next moment of glory we forget to stop and pat ourselves on the shoulder or reflectively take in the story of our journey and just how far we’ve come. LIVE AT THE HILL is a much-needed moment of retrospection in the career of Ntokozo Mdluli and how as a man I was blessed enough to touch and change a plethora of lives through my work. A long overdue experience for my supporters who’ve been through thick and thin with me.”
The concert will be a curated experience that will celebrate K.O’s journey and his amazing repertoire in an intimate concert where K.O will share his music, art, and soul with his fans in a once in a lifetime moment in culture.
