Mekox

Real name Mekondjo Kanana is an aspiring Hikwa, (combination of hiphop & kwaito) artist that has been in the industry for quit sometime now.

He and his family moved back to Namibia in 2001.

Although his parents and siblings live in Swakopmund he now stays in Windhoek because "As an artist it is difficult to make it in this somewhat biased industry if you don't live in Windhoek.Almost every radio station in Namibia is based in Windhoek. Television stations and other promotional households are only found here, that's why I chose to move."

The Dananasho hit maker has been on and off the music radar after releasing a few tracks that went on to be favorable dance tunes in Jukeboxes and car systems around the country. His first music video Dananasho received massive airplay on local television sets and radio thus making him a house hold name.

Some would say he copied the Name from the House hit Umlilo by DJ Sox, a South African based House DJ/Artist."That is not true, the name was there even before those guys thought of ever doing a song like that", the artist defensively states. Besides music, the down to earth Mekox loves entertaining people and just having a good laugh. His past time passions include cars and he is also a die hard fan of soccer giants Arsenal and Barcelona. must admit I just have a thing for sound and speed". He says.

In 2009 he released his first ever single entitled "almost there", which featured some hit tracks by Namibia's Finest musicians, by the likes of Mappz,Sally,Eddie-g,Tesh and Kamasutra. The album received massive air play on the airwaves with ofcause Dana nasho toping the charts.
