On this episode of Behind the Mic, I’m joined by Mokgethwa, aka Big Warra and a whole bunch of other akas, co-host of The Sobering Podcast, one of South Africa’s most respected Hip-Hop podcasts. We dig into the pod’s 10-year journey, what it took to build from scratch, and how Big Warra’s curiosity growing up in Limpopo shaped his love for music, media, and storytelling.

B-Sides Track of the Week:
Big Warra picks I Bore by Onipa, a continental groove that’s become his go-to track on socials and in life.

Rapid-Fire Game:
In a word association round, Warra drops 90s gems, cipher shoutouts, and unexpected picks in honor of Black Music Month.

Featured Quote:
"AKA was a star before he was a star. He always carried himself like one."

Chapters:
00:27 – Guest Introduction: Big Warra
01:01 – The Sobering Podcast Journey
02:37 – Music Talk: B-Sides Track of the Week
03:47 – Behind the Mic: Big Warra’s Background
