Thato Sikwane, better known by his stage name DJ Fresh, has entertained Mzansi with his deejaying skills for ages. His phenomenal entertaining skills have made him a household name, but he has always confused many with his anti- ageing looks. He has a baby face, and one can not ever guess that the DJ is old with five kids to make it sassier.
DJ Fresh was born on the 15th of October 1972 in Botswana. One can not believe he is older due to his baby face and stature. As of 2022, the businessman and DJ is aged 50. DJ Fresh is arguably one of the most successful radio presenters in the country, with an extensive career of more than three decades.
DJ Fresh is a Motswana who has lived and built his career life while in South Africa. Many of his fans and Mzansi have no idea that DJ Fresh was born in Botswana, where he spent a few years of his childhood.
The deejay developed an interest in deejaying while in Botswana before relocating to South Africa in 1994 to study for a Diploma in Media Studies at Johannesburg’s Boston Media House.
DJ Fresh’s age disclosed
DJ Fresh is a superstar who has worked for several radio stations in Mzansi. While he was completing his third year, DJ Fresh got a job at YFM radio station, where he worked as a radio presenter for eight years. After working at YFM, he scored another radio presenting position at 5FM and worked there for over a decade before moving to Metro FM.
He joined Metro FM in 2017, where the ‘Fresh Breakfast Show’ became one of the station’s most loved slots. However, he was later fired from Metro FM after a listener complained to The Broadcasting Complaints Commission of South Africa (BCCSA) about his strong language during a live broadcast.
DJ Fresh joined the 947 Drive Time Show, where he was sacked after being accused of rape. The rape allegations almost destroyed his career, but Fresh managed to pick his broken pieces to be famous again.
He is a jack of all trades and remains the most energetic radio voice despite controversies surrounding his career. To prove that he is the master of his craft, he has also stepped on television shows like Idols SA, SA Got Talent and Tropika Island of Treasure SA as a judge.
