L-Tido Joins Dineo Ranaka For Metro Music Awards 2025 Green Room Takeover
L-Tido Joins Dineo Ranaka For Metro Music Awards 2025 Green Room Takeover. The METRO FM Music Awards are turning 25 this year, and they’re bringing serious fire to the backstage experience.
In a surprise announcement that’s already got timelines buzzing, METRO FM revealed that none other than SA hip-hop royalty L-Tido will be co-hosting the MMA25 green room alongside the ever-charismatic Dineo Ranaka. And if the teasers are anything to go by, fans are in for a behind-the-scenes show that’s “louder, more real, and more iconic” than ever before.
Known offstage as Thato Madonsela, L-Tido isn’t just another rapper with a mic—he’s a storyteller, a trendsetter, and now, your green room plug for all things #MMA25. From the infectious energy of “I’m Back” to the introspective bars of “We Rolling”, Tido’s been keeping SA hip-hop honest for over a decade. This time, though, he’s switching gears—ditching the bars (well, maybe not entirely) to bring fans exclusive artist interviews, spontaneous freestyles, and pure, unfiltered energy from the pulse of the awards.
He’s been part of the culture for years, so he knows exactly how to tap into the real moments that fans care about. Pairing him with Dineo? We might need fire extinguishers. The dynamic with Dineo Ranaka, a media maven with razor-sharp wit and natural charisma, is expected to be electric.
As the METRO FM Music Awards celebrates 25 years of spotlighting South Africa’s musical brilliance, the green room promises to be the raw heartbeat of the night. Expect real talk, unexpected moments, and viral-worthy energy, all served up by a host who knows how to own the moment.
