DJ FRESH INSPIRES YOUNG CREATIVES IN BOTSWANA

The Department of Broadcasting Services in conjunction with Big Dawg Production are mingling with creatives in Botswana by taking them through a workshop to harness their business skills in the creative industry which launched in Kanye on the 20th of September.

Thato Sikwane, aka DJ Fresh addressed a workshop in Ghanzi for the ongoing roadshow that rejection was part of their game and should be used to fuel careers and use their creativity to earn a living out of it.

“Our industry needs focus and you should not be derailed by people perceptions,” he stated.

He went further to advice young creative who showed up for the roadshow workshop that they should always have original content and avoid being copycats in the arts industry. He went on to say they should be inspired by their mentors from the mentorship they receive.

DJ Fresh encouraged creative to use social media platforms as a way of self-branding and building their reputation.

“Selfishness was destroying the creative industry and called for mind-set change for growth,” added DJ Fresh.

The roadshow will be heading to Shakawe tomorrow.
