Amapiano sensation Tebogo G Mashego, known for his global hit Biri Marung, is quickly becoming a force to be reckoned with, not just in music, but in fashion as well. The 22-year-old artist from Bushbuckridge, Mpumalanga, never imagined that his collaboration with DJ Maphorisa, Focalistic, Scotts Maphuma, Sje Konka, and CowBoii would propel him to international stardom. What started as a TikTok content creation journey in 2024 has now turned into a worldwide music phenomenon, with Biri Marung reaching an audience far beyond his expectations.

Reflecting on the song’s unprecedented success, Tebogo expressed his surprise at its global reception. “I believed in the song, but I didn’t think it would reach such levels of global success,” he admitted. The song’s impact was further magnified when international superstar Chris Brown performed it during his Breezy tour at FNB Stadium on 15 December 2024. A viral social media challenge followed, with artists across the globe joining in to celebrate its infectious rhythm.

Beyond his music career, Tebogo’s love for fashion has also become a defining part of his public persona. From a young age, he admired designer clothing, particularly G-Star Raw, which helped shape his unique style. For Tebogo, fashion and music are inseparable. “Music and fashion go hand-in-hand, especially in our industry. People show you respect because of your fashion sense,” he explained. As an artist and an ambassador for Loxion Culture, he believes his influence extends into both realms. Looking ahead, Tebogo promises his fans new music this Easter, hinting at collaborations and a fresh track that will be a “total banger.” His goal remains to inspire others, both through his artistry and his fashion sense.
