Keke Phoofolo -
Gospel, Solo Musician
- Johannesburg
Now Keke has definitely defined himself as a gospel
artist of note. He has however not allowed the
success of his gospel music career to stain the true
cause of his ministry through song. This is evident
in his highly anticipated latest recording, 'In The
Holy Of Holies'. It is undoubtedly a premium product
which any gospel enthusiast will certainly find
inspirational and uplifting. The album highlights
the enthusiasm found in Keke, in which he uses to
emphasize the glory of God. This recording is
inspiring product which any gospel lover will
appreciate.The latest DVD/CD is now available at
music stores across the country.

Keke Phoofolo
Blessed is the realm that awarded this man the
opportunity to express his incomparable talent in
the land of the living. Not only talent is
circulating in his veins but also the power of God
through his music that distinguishes him from other
artists. When South Africa was weary of the same
gospel tunes, Keke arrived and changed the paradigm,
by taking church music to the youth the way he saw
it fit. His flexibility on stage makes one wonder
about gospel music as a genre usually associated
with insipidness among his peers.

Keke Phoofolo
Gospel sensation Keke, real name Kekeletso Phoofolo,
was born and raised in Pimville, Soweto. A
20-something singer once had a zeal to be in the
military but music took over that aspiration and
started his career with Zoe Gospel Music in 1994 as
a backing vocalist and as a result competed at the
“Shell Road to Fame” in Sun City 1997 as a soloist.
Keke never limited himself; in 1998 he found a place
in the kwaito industry with the group called Kom-Kom.
He then got the opportunity to go on tour with
Benjamin Dube 1999 before joining “Joyous
Celebration 5” in 2000-2001 as one of the choirs
lead singers. Doing the lead on the song ‘Jo Ke
Mohlolo-Hlolo’ also gave him the opportunity to work
with the male group Redeemed. While searching for
his niche, he worked with various artists including
Bheki Mseleku, Winston Mankunku and Umoja. This led
to a call from the Queen of Swaziland to run and
produce a “live” recording of Redemption Choir
2001-2004 giving him the chance to produce more
projects in the neighbouring country. In 2006 he
decided to pursue a solo career which dints go
wrong.

The success of his first album called Restoration
paved the way for his second album ‘Revival’ which
was a ‘Live’ DVD recording at the “Vaal University
of Technology”. On REVIVAL, Keke’s says ‘We all have
the opportunity to have what we want, and what we
need to revive our mind set. Emotions must be dealt
with because we have our freedom and Africa has more
than what it needs. We should come out of the beggar
mentality. This is not the time to look back because
if we do, we will not see tomorrow’. The DVD
consists of church folks favourite songs; the award
winning singer who has launched his third album has
this to say “I am humbled by my musical success. I
was also amazed by the success of my latest album
Living Testimony, which has also received platinum
status.” The DVD consists of my favourite songs such
as Sefapano, I’m in love, I need your touch and
Testimony to mention few of the best in his live
album.
