Mi Casa is a house trio based in Johannesburg, South Africa and consisting of three members, Dr. Duda (producer and pianist), J'Something (vocalist and guitarist), and Mo-T (trumpeter).
Their hit single "These Streets" was taken from the album Mi Casa, which showcased the unique urban jazz sound of the band.
It was not long before the band was on every major South African radio and music video chart at number 1, where it remained for weeks.
The band went on to open for a number of major international acts, including The Layabouts, Reel People, Tortured Soul, and YMCMB's Canadian hip hop recording artist Drake.
Mi Casa's Newcomer of the Year nomination was met with controversy when some people mentioned that the group's producer, Dr. Duda, was clearly not a new artist.
On 16 August 2013, the band released their second studio album titled Su Casa, it features Black Coffee, Jimmy Nevis, Bora Viver and Mishka.
The group's estimated net worth as of November 2014 has been put by South African Revenue Service (SARS) at US$22 million.
