Cassper Nyovest
This list can never be completed without the name Cassper. Refiloe Maele Phoolo is his full name, yes, I know you are not aware of this full name, right? He wasn’t always ‘Cassper Nyovest’. The young rapper started off as a ‘Young Gun’ and adopted the ‘Cassper Nyovest’ name when he started hanging with Motswako guru, Hip Hop Pantsula. Those close to him have said there may be a link to his favourite childhood cartoon, Casper the Friendly Ghost
Cassper through his early stage struggle has gone ahead to defy all the odds and he’s now one of the most talked about, banking and hardworking celebs. But truth be told, the biggest achievement by a local artist in SA, is the success of his #FillUpTheDome campaign. Big ups Cassper, go forth and shine
