Who is Christi Warner?

Christi Warner, is a Namibian R&B singer, songwriter, performance poet, actress, Theatre for development practitioner and Freelance journalist for the New Era ArtLife. She is probably best known for her role as television presenter "Lady Makhosa" on Soul Makhosa, a Namibian music video show broadcast on the NBC television in 2003. Early on in her music career she teamed up with Bolie Mootseng, T.C. and Stoopie to collaborate on the song On a Sunday Afternoon. Although her vocals can be heard - all over the song -, she - and the other collaborators - were unfortunately not credited for their involvement. The only artist recognised for the hit song is Boli Mootseng. It was only in 2001, when she became a group member and producer of the R&B group X-Plode featuring members Jaicee James and Lizell Swartz that she became known in the Namibian music industry.
