Meet Modise Sepeng aka BlackDice aka Muti Boy, Born and
Raised in Alexandra Township, raised by a single mother who was a domestic
worker ,a very good friend of mine and also an inspiration to most.
Being Raised in Alexandra we very much limited, you have to work twice as hard and expose yourself to things and the right people. Blackdice has become proof that it is very much possible to do what you love, even after he dropped out on his first year of a design degree when he felt his passion gravitated more towards fundamental design than the broader marketing and PR course he was centred on. He took a risk even when the marketing agency he was working for was paying his fees and almost lost his job.
