Tlou Cleopas Monyepao, better known by his stage name DJ Cleo, has been making Kwaito, Hip Hop, and House music and DJing since the early 2000s. He has won several awards for his work.
But even though DJ Cleo is one of the biggest names in Mzansi’s entertainment business, not much is known about his personal life because he is one of the few celebrities in the country who is very private.
Here is all the information you need about DJ Cleo’s wife and kids. Check out his career path and how he got to be the big name he is now.
Who is DJ Cleo’s wife?
At the moment, no one knows who DJ Cleo’s wife is because the talented producer hasn’t shared any photos or information about her.
In 2017, DJ Cleo said he was ready to get married and was already engaged, but he was keeping his relationship quiet to protect those close to him.
During the interview, DJ Cleo also said that his girlfriend’s name means “flower” in English, and that he had a tattoo of a flower on the inside of his upper arm to honor her. He said that he chose a flower instead of her name because it was safer.
DJ Cleo is also a dad, and it seems like he’s a good one. He is said to have two daughters and a son. To protect them, he has also kept them away from social media and the public.
DJ Cleo’s background and rise to fame
DJ Cleo was born in Vosloorus, Gauteng, South Africa, on December 24, 1979. Samuel Monyepao, his late father, died in 2015 from complications caused by diabetes. His mother and siblings are not well known, but he is said to have a sister named Lerato Monyepao.
Sources say that DJ Cleo went to Spring Boys High School, but there isn’t much else known about his background or education.
The talented producer and DJ first came to the public’s attention in the early 2000s, when Ashifa Shabba helped him get a job at YFM as a producer for DJ Fresh’s Unrestricted Breakfast Show.
During his time at YFM, he gained experience and grew his interest in production, both of which helped him when he started his own record label, Will of Steel Productions.
Because of his skills and growing popularity, he got a lucrative deal to make the soundtrack for the 2005 Oscar-winning movie Tsotsi. He also got a job as a freelance producer on the TV show Rhythm City.
DJ Cleo has had a successful career as a music producer, making hit singles and albums for other artists. He has also done well as an artist, writing and producing a number of songs that have won him prestigious awards.
With his hit song “Facebook,” he won three awards at the SAMAs in 2008. At the Mzansi Kwaito and House Music Awards in 2021, he also won an award for best DJ.
