Our Philosophy and Commitment is encapsulated in the following. “To provide and deliver Entertainment solution service with the highest standard of professionalism, creativity upholding at all times quality, integrity and innovation.” BACKGROUND STAGE NAME : ESKIMOS GENGRE : House – kwasa It was formed in 1999 as a dance group, comprising Kagiso Skhejo Ketswantwa, Kabo Zynne Mmolawa, Goitsemodimo Javas Binang and Keitshupile "Mandla" Mokwena.
Eskimos have managed to stick together despite the odds. For more than 10 years, the group members are also pursuing private studies. Mokwena is studying sound engineering. while Kabo Zynne Mmolawa pursued Sales and Marketing We recalls that when Eskimos were still a dance group, they entered a number of competitions and scooped awards in the process. Top muso Vee Sento soon recognised their talents and took them under his stable. Eskimos have seen it all during the past decade. As a result, we are busy shooting a Documentary to exploits in the music industry.
But it has not always been smooth sailing for the group. Eskimos managed to stick together simply because of passion for music.
"It was tough, but Eskimos made some achievements. We have also gained much experience, in our view; Eskimos has now turned into a brand.
On the business side, things have not been too bad for the Eskimos, which is why we intend to take music to a higher level. Eskimos treat themselves as professionals. In another development, Eskimos reveals its plans to perform live. Will be the first group in our genre to go live. Eskimos is aiming high after releasing their fifth album O mpimpile last year.
Eskimos released debut album, Back to Kasi, in 2004, which did remarkably well on the market. It also put the group on the music map.
Back to Kasi was followed by the release of Faratlhatlha, which featured the hit track, Mpulele in 2005. In 2006, Eskimos released Makimo. The last album before the latest release, Still Makimo, hit the market two years ago. Besides Black Money Makers, Eskimos has also released albums under Eric Ramco Records. Eskimos would like in the next few years to be known everywhere in the continent just like other top artist, and will to our best to make this come true since we use to have some festivals at South Africa. And Eskimos can only full feel this dreams if big companies in Botswana can start endorsing local artist so as to sell the brand because music is the other weapon to spread message to people out there. Eskimos at the moment have manage to travel to South Africa several times to attend some music festivals down there and our management is busy working around the clock to see Eskimos visiting Malaysia to exchange our music with people out there. Eskimos is one of the local group that want to see them selves performing in the up coming prestige’s World Cup, so that can only happens if our government work hand in hand with artist and local companies to invite artist to entertain.
SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITIES At the moment Eskimos is working on a project of donating an electric wheel chair to one of disable guy in our hood at Gaborone west, the young boy does not move him self so as a caring brothers we see it important to us to donate him the electric wheel chair so as he can move him self without any assistance from his family members, since he is a boy who like watching football in our hood.
