Musician of R&B/Soul
A.k.a. Funky Masike
”FunKy” MasiKe Mohapi, guitar maestro in his own right also went solo releasing his own albums. From these albums the most memorable tracks are Babe, Hamnana and Pimville People. In 1984 he released a maxi single featuring Standing On The Top under the raintree label. I remember that in 1984 he was in demand all over the country. During the festive season Drakensberg promotions billed him in a series of festivals, which started on 2 December in newcastle, went to Standerton, atteridgeville, Vereeniging, Umlazi and ended up in Soweto at the Jabulani amphitheatre. that is how sought-after he was. In 1985 he released a double-side maxi of My Love is Yours and Ndoyenda. Funky later suffered some setbacks in his solo career but alec made it his business to keep him afloat. It remains to be seen if the guitarman can make a comeback.
