In 2017, Mpho Sebina released a six-track EP dubbed NEO with the following songs: “No Evil”, “Love Lights”, “Mokoro”, “Black Butterfly”, “Tjuele” and “Slip Away”.
In the same year, she founded Naked Soul Sessions, an event that provides artists with a platform to showcase their work. Together with producer Favi Motsemme, they performed music from her EP NEO which launched a few months before. The event has only been hosted in Botswana and South Africa.

Mpho Sebina impressed South Africa and Botswana with her remake of the late Brenda Fassie’s Too Late For Mama’s. Chicco Twala who wrote the original version that was released in 1989 had nothing but praise for the songstress after a few artists including Alicia Keys produced an uninspiring remake.
It’s not clear whether Mpho Sebina is married and has a husband as information about her relationship is not in the public domain.
In 2021, Mpho Sebina criticised people who want free gigs from artists. She firmly stated that she will not accept such deals as she wants to be paid for her work.
In 2018, Global Citizen recognised her as “an artist to look out for”
