Music Scene update : Hip Hop and Beyond

Every party or club you go to will likely jam CaraCara by K.O, After years of being in the shadows South African Hip Hop is finally taking flight.
The new trend seems to be mixing a kwaito song with catchy lyrics that will get people dancing , Early origins of this was when Tumi and Zubz released the Tz Deluxe tape which was a pure appreciation of kwaito music.
BlackLez followed suit with his Mdu remix of GibelaPhezKwendlu(Baba Ka Nomsa) on that Dont Be Scared joint. It wasnt long before Cassper did Doc shebeleza and around the same season CaraCara dropped. Duncan felt out so he remixed TsikiTsiki which has received luke warm reception.

Is hip hop really heading back to kwaito or is this just a phase ?  
In other news , our own 50 cent , Motswako Originator Khuli Chana received his twitter verification , It was later followed by AKA's verification. The first rap artist to receive such verification in south africa was GingerBreadMan, Now we really wanna know how twitter decides who to verify if Tumi and Proverb still have normal Twitter accounts.
Speaking of twitter accounts ? between the arrows and spears of the Cassper AKA wars , Slikour got his twitter account hacked on 6th of June 2014. According to what little evidence we have , the @Slikour account was hacked and it was changed to @GingerRapper , with a white guy wearing Britain flagged clothing.

Drama i say , lots of it dished and severed. Singer Teepee was abducted a few weeks back , his car was found smashed windows and he rocked up in the AM all roughed up. @SeanPages confirmed that he is safe and sound and he will be pressing charges. Teepee are you sure you dont know these dudes ??? Hmmm.

So you dont have Dstv or you were in a remote place and could not watch the MTV MAMA Awards?? ...well  here is a list of the winners.

Uber brings Lulo Cafe to Burgersfort

They say in order to build a strong house , you must bring it right to the ground and start with the foundation

UberLifestyle was in the news a few months ago for changing their logo , there uproars about the simplicity of the logo and how it was not as attractive as the previous one( read story here) . Management of Uber hinted and warned that the logo was not a problem , they are focused on the product they will give you. One will agree that a lot of drinks have more attractive bottles than Coca Cola but Coke is still the leading brand.

All critics and skeptics are swallowing humble pie because the proof was really in the pudding. Sakkie & Friends Concepts (Pty) Ltd announced that they will be bringing Lulo Cafe on the 19th of April , it was like they are dreaming .One would have sworn they playing a bad joke on us .
When the line up was published heaven felt jealous. The legendary 404, Fish , Mafadi , Mr Deep Sounds Lolo himself were some the house angels chosen to lead the garrison before Lulo Cafe took to the decks . If you think that is too much to take in, The surprise performance by house prodigy Brazo wa Afrika took the crowd by storm.
The timelines on facebook were no longer about complaints, no one is talking about the logo anymore. They just have red ants in their socks about the service delivery by Uberlifestyle.
Sakkie said " i have no done anything yet , i have a lot more to achieve and a lot more artists to book , i am entertainment , I dont sell tickets for gigs , I sell lifestyle" .

Hip Hop Cares will be hosting their 3rd gig there on the 12th of July 2014 in amalgamation with Deep Sounds and Mic Rocker. Hip Hop Cares spokesperson Sheila Mmutle commented "Uber is on another level now , They have just taken house to a different standard , imagine if we came and dropped their standard with Hip Hop Cares? We need to upkeep the quality"

  At the Hawaiian party on of the socialites was heard saying "this is sophisticated entertainment , its like i stepped into Jo'burg as soon as i walked into that gate"

Brazo wa Afrika spotted with Oom Thato(Lavita)

If you actually doubted his his talent and ability lets save you . He was nominated for a the category "song of the year" at the Limpopo Hip hop awards , he enjoys airplay on various stations like Emalahleni Fm ,Tubatse Fm  and Jozi Fm just mention a few. Fletcher is definitely leading the Pedi rap movement in the Burgersfort region .

At Hip Hop Cares II besides Mic Rocker he was the only artist who received an encore. He plans to release his album this year called TJA LIMPOPO which will feature various underground rappers such as Slabsta and Kwabena. How does someone get hate on a cat like this ??? Here is some music
