Tiisetso Motaung, better known in the entertainment industry as DJ Sue, is in the forefront of house music. Unlike other ordinary DJs, Sue is not just a deejay and producer but a vocalist who lends her voice to her own tracks.
She began her journey as a deejay in mid 2003, using her friend’s equipment, to show off her skills at birthday parties and braais in and around Johannesburg, South Africa.
From early 2005 she began building a name for herself as a resident DJ at pubs and clubs namely Mo’s Pub in Norwood, Ozone, Sochila, News Cafe Maponya Mall, Panyaza, Capitol in Rosebank, Zambezi, Cappello’s, Far Out in Midrand, JL lounge in Mthatha, Chaf Pozi and Change Room to mention a few. The multitalented Sue has shared the turntables with some of South Africa’s most celebrated DJs including Vinny Da Vinci, Christos, QT, Ganyani, Black Coffee, Claude, China, Pepsi, Kent, Cleo, Clock, Zinhle, Mahoota and Vetkoek, Euphonik, Thobs, Tira, China as well as international DJ and producer Abicah Soul. In the same year she was a back track DJ for Hip Hop artist Jub Jub until September 2009.
Her musical journey keeps taking her to places as far as Pretoria, Swaziland, Lesotho, Mthatha, East London, Durban, Mpumalanga, Rustenburg, Mafikeng, Venda, Limpopo and as far as North of Africa in Algeria. She has been featured and interviewed on a variety of shows both radio and television namely, Oskido’s House Grooves show on YFM, Glen Lewis and Unathi’s drive time show on Metro FM, Vinny Da Vinci and Christos’ Urban Beat show with lady Zeal on Metro FM, Umhlobo Wenene FM, Chilli M’s show on Ukhozi FM, 5FM’s (LIVE) 5 show with Catherine Grenfell, SABC 1’s Jika ma Jika and the “Just Music Show†with Lerato Kganyago, YoTV Extension 4, as well as the Nimrod Nkosi show on Soweto TV.
Sue is driven by her passion to unite all female DJs and musicians through what she has dubbed as “an unforgettable night life experienceâ€. Having mastered the art of turntabalism, DJ Sue is also the brains behind The Night Life Experience as well as The Sound Evolution events.
As a vocalist she has worked with DJ Qness, Infinite Boys, Gigs Super Star, T-underground and V-underground from Soul Candi Music. DJ Sue is also the lead vocalist on the theme song of SABC 2’s comedy series titled "Garedumele".
In 2009 till 2011, when she was not entertaining club hoppers around the country with her electrifying mixes, Sue shared her know-how as a DJ Lecturer as well as Assistant Lecturer for Music Production at the Soul Candi Institute imparting valuable knowledge to South Africa’s next generation of turntable gurus.
In May 2011 she clinched a radio show on internet radio station Rhythm100 radio.
“My goal is to break boundaries while continuing to work with other creative minds,†says DJ Sue.
Currently she is a regular on Channel O’s Celebrity Bassment, Vuzu’s Hit Refresh live show and can be seen performing with her band in some of the country’s biggest night spots like Cocoon, Mzansi Magic’s Clash of Choirs finale, the VIP Room alongside DJs Black Coffee, Ganyani, Culoe de Song, Vinny Da Vinci to mention a few.
In 2013, her melodic voice can also be heard on DJ Cleo’s “It’s Been So Long†which will be released on his E’skhaleni Soul album.
DJ Sue is currently working on her debut house album and already it promises to be a big success as two of the singles from the yet-to-be-titled offering are currently being played on rotation radio stations nationwide.
