The Dogg

Martin Morocky (born 31 March 1983), known by his stage name as The Dogg (or King TeeDee), is a Namibian musician.

The money earned through live performances, licenses, royalties, and awards has contributed significantly to King Tee Dee's net worth.

After graduating from high school, Morocky chose to study for a Science degree at the University of Namibia.

[1] King Tee Dee is almost on all social media platforms, just to mention some like Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.

When he was in grade nine, he and long-time friend Joe Basson, now known as Auntie Sousa, created a kwaito dancing group called Amasilkies.

Before pursuing a music career, he was a backup artist and a dancer and he also opened shows for his famous cousin Killa B and well-known friend Jossy Joss.

Morocky also opened concerts for well-known South African artists, including Mzekezeke, Malaika, Mafikizolo, Mandoza, Brown Dash, Brickz, and Ishmael among others.

He rose to fame following the release of his hit single "Jesus Otati", a kwaito-gospel song produced by Elvo in 2003.

While struggling to compile his album, The Dogg met and befriended upcoming artist Gazza, who had just returned to Namibia from studies in South Africa.

[2] The Dogg immediately started working on his debut album, releasing the critically acclaimed hit "Perfecto Tromentos" later that year.

This situation would later bring bad blood between The Dogg and music partner Gazza, whom critics claimed was robbed of the award.

Morocky signed the first artist to his Mshasho label, Sunny Boy, whom he met while studying at the University of Namibia.

At a concert in Luderitz (2005) The Dogg and Gazza got involved in a rooted argument that would later turn sour, prohibiting the two from working together in the future.

[3][6] In 2007 The Dogg continued to enjoy success with his music career, he performed in Europe at the beginning of the year and had various tours around Namibia with his Mshasho crew.

He proved critics wrong with the release of You Can't Ignore, which was considered a comeback classic and was compared to his first and second albums for its hardcore beats and dark lyrics.

Another popular song was "Get Sum More", produced by DJ Kboz, and featuring the most anticipated rapper at the time Qonja.

In March 2009, The Dogg was nominated for "African Artist of the Year" by Nigeria's Hip-Hop World Awards.

The two rappers collaborated on a short album entitled Lets Celebrate, released on 16 December 2010 on Mshasho Records.

[9][10] Produced by The Dogg and Elvo, the album features the hits "Let's Celebrate" with TeQuila, "Be My Shepherd" with KK and Lil' D, and "Merry Christmas".

Additionally, he has produced hits for non-Mshasho artists, including Sunny Boy, Qonja, Kamasutra, Faizel MC, and Kavax.
