“Inside Life with K.O embodies this commitment as it brings to light the compelling journey of one of Africa’s musical legends.
“We are thrilled to partner with K.O on this project and provide a platform for him to share his remarkable story.”
K.O has made substantial contributions to the South African music industry over the past two decades. However, he believes that much of his true essence remains hidden from the public eye.

“This show is a portal where people get to see my heart, see how my brain functions, and just get to understand me a little better, said K.O.
