Focalistic, one of Mzansi’s biggest Amapiano stars, recently celebrated his 29th birthday in style — and the night was nothing short of magical. Born Lethabo Sebetso, the rapper officially turned 29 on Monday, 26 May, but the real celebration happened two days later on Wednesday, 28 May, when his friends threw him a surprise party he’ll never forget.
The celebration followed a sleek “suit-and-tie” theme, and it brought out a glittering guest list of South Africa’s top entertainers. Celebrities like DJ Maphorisa, Nadia Nakai, Pabi Cooper, Scotts Maphuma, Anele Zondo, Ayanda MVP, and Nomuzi Mabena were all in attendance — dressed to the nines and ready to celebrate the man of the moment.
Focalistic was deeply moved by the gesture and the presence of so many loved ones. In an interview with Daily Sun, he shared his emotions, saying, “I’m happy and can’t believe so many came out for me. It just shows that the biggest currency is love. I was so happy, especially when I saw my sister. I think I shed a tear.”
Each guest brought their own style and sparkle to the night. Pabi Cooper wowed in a glamorous, silver beaded gown with floral details on the shoulders and a deep neckline. Focalistic himself wore a shiny black textured coat, matching pants, and dark sunglasses, giving off a bold and stylish vibe.
Nadia Nakai turned heads in a fitted black-and-nude dress with beaded stripes, a thigh-high slit, and dramatic satin details at the neckline. She finished her look with gold jewelry, bright yellow nails, and classic Hollywood waves.
DJ Maphorisa kept it classy in a black tuxedo paired with a white shirt. He added some flair with a silver watch, bracelet, and eyeglasses — topped off with shiny black dress shoes.
After the party, Focalistic went on social media to express his gratitude: “Thank you so much for the well wishes ka letsatsi laka la matswalo. It felt so blessed!” (Translation: “Thank you so much for the well wishes on my birthday. It felt so blessed!”)
