Budding South African producer, Thuto Moloi, aka Thuto the Human, has experienced what many will call “a groundbreaking moment” in his career.

The talented DJ and producer was announced the winner of the Remy Martin producers contest season 2 and outdoored at a grand ceremony in Dubai this week.

Thuto the Human survived an intense boot camp and triumphed in a 3-way beat battle in Joburg.

As part of his winning package, the “Ke Dipatjie” hitmaker will be working with Emirati-born musician Freek and international DJ duo Major League DJz

Alastair Coombe, head of digital marketing and Ecommerce for Remy Martin, echoed that the brand does not expect any future profit from Thuto but only wants to see him capitalize on the platform given him to excel.

“It is not on us to expect future returns or anything like that. I think it's just to get the guys out there and see them grow and access the support and general tools at his disposal, That's the expectation,” he answered

A team of creative community leaders and collaborators welcomed the artistes and producers to Dubai at an exclusive yacht experience hosted by Remy Martin with support from The Dubai Tourism represented by Prince Tonye Princewill Tjt. Guests included local creatives, media personalities and influencers from Africa.

Major League DJz and Thuto the Human are expected to host a half-day session in the coming days jamming with local superstars like Freek, Abri, and other entertainers.
