Journey
To speak of South African entertainment without mentioning Keabetswe “KB” Motsilanyane is to leave out one of its brightest voices. Her journey has never been about one talent alone; she sings, she acts, she dances, and each path has shaped her reputation as a multi-dimensional artist.
Born on 8 April 1979, KB first stepped into the national spotlight in the early 2000s. Her debut album, "Beautiful Vibrations" (2002), carried both freshness and depth, earning her a devoted following. She built on that success with "Rock Lefatshe" (2003) and "El Musica" (2005), each project confirming her staying power. After years of consistent artistry, she returned with Keabetswe (2024), proving that her creativity evolves with time while holding onto authenticity. Alongside these albums, singles such as “Young Love,” “Morwamotho,” “I Wish I Was There,” and “Music Is You” stand out in her catalogue.
Her talent has not gone unnoticed. KB has received multiple South African Music Award (SAMA) nominations and recognition at the Kora All Africa Music Awards, where her vocal performances earned widespread praise.
Acting brought another dimension to her career. South African audiences came to know her through shows like Backstage, Rhythm City, and 7de Laan, where her on-screen presence was as compelling as her music.
With more than two decades of experience, KB remains an influential figure whose voice, roles, and performances continue to inspire both peers and younger generations.
