Dinaledi Podcast with DJ Lemonka, Molemi and MotswvkoCulture - Ep. 1

On this #MotswakoMantaga, DJ Lemonka, Molemi and Tuks Senganga who now goes by MotswvkoCulture have come together to discuss the trials and tribulations they have faced in their individual Merchandising journeys.
Each wearing their brands, they share gems that will go a long way in helping other brands and individuals learn from their mistakes and the struggles they faced and how to navigate through the merchandising landscape in these current times.

I'm going to need Tuks to speak up more. He's so reserved to his own thoughts but this is dope for Motswako Culture. From Taung to Lefatshe

Love this podcast gentlemen! Long overdue. Firstly: - I still think it’s possible to successfully market motswako merchandise. Knowing your market is important. Tuks is hit the nail that collaboration is key. All three of these gentlemen have fantastic merchandise, but I think there needs to be a central point for customers to physically and digitally buy their products. Win-win. - Development is crucial in Motswako. More than ever right now. Yes, Mo, not everybody may have Jabba’s development skills, but I think it’s crucial, in everyone’s capacity, to consistently advocate the idea of growing Motswako. - I slightly disagree with Lemonka. Patriarchy should be addressed even among majita. You guys are the pioneers, and your voices are very strong. Again, advocating a inclusive motswako society could be the to Motswako being a powerful force to be reckoned with again.

[@ofentseriski3771]

Was so excited to see my favourite of all times today at a Shell store Tuks senganga(motswako culture). Greeted and asked for a picture but was completely ignored😢 by my GOAT. It really cut deep.

[@robbylebotha]

Dunno gents, I think merchandise is saturated. We need to realize the difference between merchandise and clothes. Merch is supported, clothes are bought. Merch is forgotten, clothes are kept. Can a brand make both, yes. A printed hoodie or tee is merch(for unknown brands, known brand can get away with it), a designed hoodie is clothes. In my experience with branding and merch in the motorbiking community, people by it because they are buying the experience and exclusivity. That I have a hoodie that I got at this event in 2016, 2017 and 2018. Let's say the A Mantsi album is re-released for R500 with a printed tee, I would run to buy it, it's competing alone and it's something I can be proud of and flex with. If the same tee is at edgars, now it's competing with puma, Nike ect and I might not buy it. I could talk all day about this and how to use technology alongside it. I think a good starting point would be to take Nispey Hussle brand as a case study. And also to be real , motswako is a niche market so the energy has to be directed accordingly.

[@feelaliveagain2763]

Dope episode 🆒😄. Really loved how you guys dived deep into the merchandise thing and the mistakes y'all made in the beginning but learnt from them.

[@yaonemogwere6995]

More collaborations, more coporations are needed. Motswako was killed by hunger, thirst and greed for going solo..individualism🤷🏿‍♂️

[@yaonemogwere6995]

Dinaledi is good start...which is more team oriented. Print merchandise open pop up store during busy tyt...rope in Notshi, Element, Lection, Maglera Towdee, Boity is currently a social media Power House.... forget about trivial beefs they won't take us anywhere

[@yaonemogwere6995]

Develop mass pulling events like di 60s, Letlamoreng etc where your art could be sold. E.g. Culture has a sound..you guys are musicians with a catalog for days...go back to where you all started. Mobilize Bokone Bophirima masses...that's where your fanbase, fundamentally is based.

[@TopTierTrendz]

I could listen to Mojo speaking for hours, both these rappers are generational word Smith's thank you for this. please be consistent, your knowledge is needed desperately

This is so dope 🔥🙌🏽 Ke Utlwa Lemonka a re a ka rotloetsa bana ba gagwe go tsena in the industry of arts 🎭 Bcos he feels he can help them to get it somewhere ko e ka ba tswelang mosola teng (paraphrasing) Does this serve as confirmation that to make it you need a somewhat influential and/or powerful contact/connect? If so what does that say ka bana ba rona who aspire to be great in the industry, but unfortunately for them bo Rra bone like me are nobodies? Or is it just that. Unfortunate. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Record labels or music industry dont have talent scouts like ko disking? Scouts could connect the artist with management company and they can help manage artist and help make connections le record labels...? ka botsa net

[@MrLemonka]

Be a scout and grow the game,generally a scout is the guy who listens to demos at the record label ..what type of deal an artist signs will determine if the label brings the manager or the artist outsource .
