The Commission starting to feel like those rappers that snitch on themselves in songs then get arrested later 😭 everybody that goes there suddenly has a case attached to their name.
@uMaster_Sandz@podcastwithmacg His job isn’t just to occupy space and pretending to listen.contribute speak and challenge https://t.co/UVjEvxUpR4 some point, that silence stops looking like maturity and starts looking like resentment, especially when it eventually turns into threats and hostility.
The industry doesn’t gatekeep artists anymore.We do through podcasters on independent platforms.They claim freedom, but keep pushing the same conversations,same artists,same top 5 debates every day.Meanwhile artists like @PdotO_SA @thando_zide @l_iabutler barely get mentioned
@MDNnewss Bester isn’t seeking justice.He’s seeking delay.Wasting state resources with 75 page documents he can’t even read himself.This isn’t democracy.This is a circus. And we’re all buying the tickets with our taxes. Every delay is a day outside that cell to showcase his fashion sense
@illythehost This says more about our society than rap.We rush people to grow up and put age limits on expression.Nobody says you’re too old for golf,art,or writing,but suddenly rap must expire. R&B singers still sing explicit sexual content into their later years and nobody questions it.
@DjZanD DJs can break records and artists can make club bangers, but the bigger conversation is that hip-hop isn’t embraced by the wider crowd the way the heads embrace it. And the same heads aren’t showing up to support DJs and venues either. Hip-hop is mostly enjoyed as a conversation.
@Chymamusique Visuals still shape how we experience and understand music and give a song an extra shelf life in a world where we consume music so quickly. The mistake is thinking videos still need TV like MTV or BET. YouTube is the new TV no gatekeepers, no payola.
@sibumabena It’s not a bad film it just doesn’t have the substance Denzel Washington is known for. You can tell it felt too simple for his range. It’s not that he can’t deliver… it just didn’t feel like he had to.
@DiTlamZ@Boyzn_uWandile To make you Understand let’s bring it close to your Country Maybe it’s the same reason why Cats Like Mr T Nomadic ,Orakle never blew up cause they were too technical with the Raps instead of making hits while Scar And T Joint Switched Up To mix Vernac In their Raps.
@rapkulture_za If you’ve been around SA hip-hop, you’ve heard this kind of wordplay before.Proverb,Zubz ,TUMI From the V It’s good for the independent scene, but not strong enough for the music business.
The real question is would you sign him and build a bag with him?
