Step Up Homie! SBK 1nce more

My being there was a matter of chance, woke up n thought I should grab a Cancer Stick around the Street n Rasta Foto just happened 2 b along the same Area. Talked a bit, bout this n dat…. Blah… blah blah… blah… blah…..blah….blah….n “oh ja u could crash a ride with me” Rasta Foto finally said. Roundabout 6 in the evening R.F came through with 4 other Guys, Russian Bear Vodka, a couple of Smokes n Mpefa! The night was Set, who could hav asked for more, all I wanted was 2 b at the show.

Sebokeng (SBK) Zone 14 yet again put it down 4 hip hop. Community Hall was the Joint where Cats came to flex their vocal chords or Just smoke a Joint. We hit the place at about 7:30pm n people were warming up outside, the whole shindig had not Started. So we also just found a spot to hang while anticipating the performances. Blunt here n there, the Bear 4rm Russia moved around us as the Cancer Sticks were takin our lives slowly. The tickets 4 entrance was R10, n I heard Niggas complainin. Complainin bout R10 when it was a Show packed with Performances, I bet those same Niggas would be able to pop out R30 to c Goddard Playing ko Networks. Niggas get real, if we want this Hip hop to grow we best not b tryin to get free passes. Come on Niggas!

Big Up to Methodical for being the only female Emcee to rock the stage, she was one of the first to lace the MIC. She gave us a set of three Songs, b4 the performance she told me it would be her first performance. She has a lot to work on though, but big up still.
Mothipa was there again to Hijack the industry with his laid back flow, Mo catalyst also gave a few of his Bangers of particular the track whereby he says “ I don’t wana Teach, I just wana Rap, I don’t wana preach, I just wana Rap” now that’s a banger waiting to get airplay!


A crew called Sake Of Skill (A.K.A, The Original Backpackers, Fantastic 4, The last of the Rhyming Heroes) hit the stage n 1 could here the level of maturity in their performance the crew hails 4rm the east rand, n they gave a performance worth noting! I’m a fan already but wont b no Stan! Unfortunately there was 2 mics on the stage for the performers, n da cats had to share one way or the other (Bare bana ba Motho ba ngwathelana hlogo ya tjie!). The sound was also not on point, Step Up gosta improve in that department!

Other crews that performed were The Intelex n Frat Pack. I caught a glimpse of R – senic n Last Day Fam on our way out, they were due to perfom later on.

It don’t end without a Cypher, cats did their best freebies on the outside but like they say that’s were u get ur street cred at! Long live the Cipher! The trip back saw one more guy joinin us in the ride, so it became an overload but all was merry! The bear had knocked out G, n he gave us a bit of freebies in the car. Big Up to Step Up for organizing the whole thing, it was a good show overall.
