Monk-e ¬¬¬ "Cashdown" The Video ¬¬¬ #Canada #Montreal via ixdaily.com




Monk-e CASHDOWN
Extrait de l'album "Esclavage, Exode & Renaissance" 
Produit par: PSTV
Réalisé par Carlos Guerra


"Après que j'ai catch que le cash joue à cache-cache avec les caves qui l'attendent.
J'ai work work puis j'ai stack une sale stash de piasses dans une boîte à shoeclack et à la banque.
Collecte les liasses crasseuses, les cashews, cash rules gratte-ciels et partouzes et leurs carences.
Plus, les jeunes gosses floss mais les reals bawss s'offrent patience pour un cashdown. "


"Only one that is inconscient can boast about wasting fruits of his labor in ephemeral extravagance. Wise people know longevity of wealth resides in long term investments, collective growth and financing culture."

The Radioactive Mixtape Demo #FD @2tukani #Bulawayo #Zimbabwe



Today marks a very special day for me. It's not only the day I "finally" release my first solo project, but it's also the day my father was born. Well, I'm sure he would have been pleased to listen to it if he was still around.

This "mixtape demo" is a compilation of some of the tracks I've done so far, dating back to the year 2013. They are not a lot though. The reason why I called it a "Mixtape Demo" is because it's a preliminary mixtape (It's not my official Mixtape). I decided to release this project so that people can have an idea of who The Activist is and what to expect when he drops the official tape/ album (which will be before the end of this year). The first track I'm going to talk about is "Who we are" which features Static and Baffy who are both upcoming, underground Hip hop artists from Bulawayo. This is a very chilled track, and has a similar concept to one of Common's old jams (You will definitely recognize the similarity if you're a big Common fan). Common is definitely one of my favorite rappers. The second track I'll briefly talk about is "Africa" , which I recorded with my rap group BYO - Building Your Origins and it featured in our first mixtape "Building Blocks". It's also a chilled jam, whereby I was rapping over a beat-box melody. My favorite line from this track is " Yes we need more positive actions/ cause actions speak louder than African accents/ ... ". If you're into lyricism , I'm sure you will like this track. The next track that I will talk about is "Freedom Activity". This track basically exposes who The Activist is, and what I'm trying to do with my music. So far, out of all my tracks, this seems to be the fans favorite. The last track is a joint I did with a good friend of mine who goes by the name "AKidWit_No_Tahg". It's my latest track, and it has an old school vibe to it. We decided to call the track : "The Bars Show" because it had a relaxed feel to it that made it sound as if we were spitting dope bars at an open mic session (Shout out to the host "Bars")

I decided to throw in a poem I recited were I talk about my city (Bulawayo). I'm also a poet who has published a couple of books/ anthologies. I've been privileged to work with prominent people such as Mcpotar , Ernest Mackina , Njabulo Moyo, and yes, Albert Nyathi. The poem is very short and sweet. I also through into the mixtape demo an instrumental that I made quite a while ago. Feel free to use it, and also send the track back to me so that I give it a listen. (I would encourage you to use the same title of the instrumental for your track , because I would love to see who's more creative, but feel free to use your title if you feel the need to). Well, that's about it for now, feel free to give me feedback on twitter @2tukani . Peace!!!

10 Artistes to Watch Out for in 2015 via @UrbanHypeNet by Segawa Salim


We are in an era where you can easily put your music out there for consumption. But the big question has always been ‘how are you going to remain relevant in the ever growing number of artistes on different genre scale?’. The internet has played a huge role in bringing the fans and artistes together. Last year, we witnessed a number of both old and new artistes coming up with different branding and strategy to survive in the overly competitive music scene. Here is our list of 10 artistes that we feel will have a great 2015 and breakout as huge artistes.
553788_804399219587081_2058441624_n
Abaasa is a 23 year old drummer, singer, producer and pianist. He has his own style/theme of music composition that he calls ‘Liquid Afro’. Last year, he featured on The Mith’s sophomore album and also managed to release a four track EP titled ‘Love Tape‘ that featured songs like Chips & Chaps, Time travel, You, and A cat born in an oven is not a cake. The unique sound of his own production gives him a shot to be one of the urban artistes highlights of 2015.

When i first heard about Khai Prod, he was working with Maurice Kirya on a couple of projects. Then i listened to his song titled ‘Hi’ where he featured Maurice Kirya and i started following his music journey. His weapon of music destruction is blended in his voice and soulful production. With his pre-album releases, he has created a heavy and loyal fan base, Khai Prod will have a great year. His latest sound is a rendition of Boys 2 Men’s ‘Time after time’.

10615332_10152293864283015_2127188389927356597_n
I started listening to Ninja C’s music early last year when she collaborated with AirporTaxi’s Tucker HD on a song titled ‘Our Time’. Ninja C seems to haven’t figured out how good she is with rapping; and if she figures that earlier, 2015 will be hers to claim the crown. Her contribution on Baru’s beat EP called ‘Redefinitions’ portrays a lot about her as a rapper. You can listen to Ninja C’s music on her Reverbnation.

Remember the Undercover Brothers? The duo (Murungi and Kirya)that represented Uganda at Tusker Project Fame 6 together with Daisy Ejang? Undercover Brothers are really talented; the ability to blend nice vocals with multiple instrument skills makes them superb. They have released a couple of songs which include Mwagala Kilalu and Diamond ft Young Zee . I think that this year, the Undercover Brothers are going to give us more of what they have in store.

Brian is a talented singer, guitarist and vocalist. I had a chance to hear him perform at faze 2 on Buganda Rd where he plays live music every Thursday. He has that powerful voice which makes his feel comfortable when hitting the high and low notes. The way his voice interacts with his Guitar is mind-blowing. Brian needs is an audience that resonates with style of music; He should utilize his YouTube channel to build a fan base that connects with.

1482738_553446088123680_2777767523841630905_n
This Dustville Records rapper has found his way into many people’s favorite rappers’ list only because of his dope debut mixtape ‘Kiwedde’ but also his style of rapper. He raps in native language style (Lugaflow) and there’s a way he has cloned his own style. Hopefully, I think Pryce Teeba can full utilize his time and make 2015 his own. I expect to hear a lot of good stuff from him.

48196_241096082679241_837874278_o
S.T.R.A.P (Sound that Roars African Pride) is a Ugandan Hip hop artist from Kampala, Uganda that is currently based out of Kansas. Last year, he left a mark on the hip-hop scene with his debut album titled ‘Oblivion’. S.T.R.A.P’s ‘Oblivion’ didn’t only introduce him on the hip-hop scene but it also sparked light on how futuristic his career is.

Agee
10685336_10202748522904536_141937703356178251_n
Agee released her debut single titled ‘Love’ last year and collaborated on numerous projects like Blessed Cypher, Nabakyaala, GMC Cypher, and Mr DJ. As a young female rapper, the feedback the songs generated was warm. Though, I feel like she procrastinated after her debut single. But with a promised EP, Agee will successful dip her feet deep and have a great year, musically.

1015867_10201174748111725_630474594_o
Juggling careers has always never been a simple thing especially when it involves a passion and profession. Last year, Naqabiito re-branded herself from The Ginsu and she released a debut single under her new moniker titled ‘On My Own’. Even before she took a relatively simple break off music, Naqabiito(Formerly known as The Ginsu) was fierce on the mic; her level of lyricism and flow helped her to go head to head with top dudes in the game. Naqabiito is a double edged sword, she produces and writes her own music.

10403299_851315821595766_970506903552622965_n
It’s no doubt that A Pass will not have a great year. He reincarnated with a fierce ghost in him. Last year, A Pass topped several music charts with his many songs which were obviously good. His camp recently revealed to us that A Pass has more than 400 pre-released songs with an estimation of three-quarters being super hits.

Argolas Deliciosas by Nandele #Maputo #Mozambique #BuyNow



Argolas Deliciosas (transl. Sweet Rings) is the debut EP by mozambican beat maker Nandele. Instrumental hip-hop, dubstep, trap and psychedelic beats are the main sounds on this EP which is also a tribute to the supreme beat maker J Dilla. Argolas Deliciosas is a place for contemplation, a planet, an escape to ethereal atmospheres, a tele transport to other galaxies. Nandele has been through several journeys and this is the result of what he saw, tasted and listened. Featuring mozambican producers like Embri0n and Fu da Siderurgia, this is the first album of the sort in Mozambique, where an alternative scene is almost inexistent. Nandele always had a forward thinking and here is the result. This EP will be accompanied by a comic book with art from Ricardo Pinto, the same artist responsible for the cover. Enjoy the Argolas Deliciosas!
