Fo-Play Determined. Talented Artistic Versatile. These are just a few words to describe South Africa's latest hip hop sensation, Fo-Play. Hailing from the vibrant township of Soshanguve in Pretoria, South Africa, the group consists of 3 members each of whom bring their own musical expertise to the group to form what has already been dubbed as a hip hop outfit to be reckoned with. The group comprises Karabo Molepo aka "Icy Beats", Morena Molepo aka "Deep Drill",and Harry N. Ndou aka "Raidy". Harry explains how the group was formed: "Although we had known each other for several years prior and had been toying with the idea of pursuing careers in music, it was only in 2011 that we decided to make it formal and pursue music full time. All three of us had been writing lyrics since our early teens so we have many songs with diverse messages to impart. Karabo and his younger brother Morena are also established producers and myself learning the ropes of producing," he said. The name Fo-Play alludes to the essence of what the group is about - a grouping of three (3) guys making fun music. Says Morena: "We would like to be perceived as complex rappers who love music. We are serious artists who understand that life is not always about partying and having fun because at the end of the day, fun does not end, but a person does. "We want to send a message to youngsters of today that yes we can all have fun, but at some point reality hits - we all have to grow up. Growing up means being responsible,and working hard to guarantee a better future. 

We want our fans to focus on making something out of themselves and being respectable, responsible, human beings", says Morena. In 2013, Fo-Play released their first Mix- Tape “The Peak” which they distributed on online stores. “The Peak” is also on iTunes, Amazon, Google play, Spotify, and others. 

The mixtape features the groups popular track 'Famous' which speaks to the experiences of an aspiring artist. The track touches on the groups own expectations and ambitions as upcoming artists, providing a platform for introspection and self analysis. Raidy explains: "The track is deep and in essence it talks about exactly what we want and expect from the industry. It is an account of how much we are dedicated to making music and the measures we would go through to have people pay attention to our music and the messages contained in our songs". The group is currently working on its first EP which features the track Baptism as the lead single. Karabo explains that
