DESCRIBE YOUR RAP STYLE: Monica Skota



  • Monica a Sister who LOVES Hip hop spoke to a few Emcees in fact asking them just 1 question: How would you describe your RAP Style?




    And here are some of the answers below

     

     

    • Axo Uphamene Nku Backyard.

    Its English and Xhosa thats me in not all Spaza. I get influence from Eminem.


    • Yahkeem Ben Israel

    I am a profound and pragmatic lyricist who pleads the cause of his people. My music is intended to invoke emotions, trigger thoughts and transfer the delicate issues of life.










    • Sinethemba Raptile Mgoduka

    Its Boom rap funk.


    • Redondo Bukhulubakhe Nompetsheni

    Its social commentary on issues like violence, religion, peace, love etc. I keep it street and flexible, base on true life stories especially where am from (Ghetto). Though sometimes it comes in a form of fun and vibey. The most important thing is the message because its there and it will always be there (Relevant).

    • Ill Dre

    I write simple rhymes. I don't make them too complicated for listeners to interpret them, as much as I love rhyming I make sure I write what makes Sense. I don't rhyme for the sake of rhyming.



    • Buddha-Phillipine Kunene

    To be Honest with you I'm still learning a lot to about myself, the music I've made and what I'm currently in the process of making BUT I will say this.
    When approaching a song/a verse I put more emphasis on the "content" and "flow" (rhythm and rhyme) and delivery.
    At this point I don't have a specific name for what I do except for that its music and I call it Hip Hop/Rap.
    One thing that influenced me though is the "flow" and delivery without that you wouldn't even know who I was.



    • Invisible Virus

    Am more of a double rhymer kinda rapper unlike most rappers I rhyme in between sentence and at the end of the sentence whatever type of track I do soulful or hardcore I use the same pattern of rhyming.


     

    • Phoenix Backyard

    I don't bound myself when it comes to rapping because I always try to go beyond what already is. So I really can't put a finger on it





    • Principlez EkseNtangam Mbane

    I do EXPERIMENTAL HIP HOP
    I fuse elements from other genre's e.g musical theater,rock 'n roll, R'nB, soul, jazz and reggae. Then experiment the sounds with my core genre which is Hop Hip.

    As a growing Hip-Hop artist, I like a more diverse Rap. I kind of rap about anything that I certainly know it will make the song nice and anybbody can manage to recite. But all in all, I enjoy rapping about myself.

    Much Respect Monica, you did a great job with this topic
    it for the people by the people ... Hip Hop is a skill ... it art ... perfection is never an easy task ... 1 needs to understand his/her environment and most importantly "who you are, as an artist."

Mbaleigh talks BACK TO THE CITY 2013

  So yeah BACK TO THE CITY2013!! You know mos umntomnyama, never on time, I got there at past 7 because of other commitments. Nevertheless the show was just on another level , heard that Snarks Ou and Maxhoseni had people dancing and singing along, even outside Cape Town they still have fans. Having seen them both perform I couldn't agree more . There were some new faces as well, well I forgot them. So we were told about this crew from the "states" called EMC , that was a performance they pulled after some group came in and bored us. They did their thing except for the part that they Performed for more than 15 minutes , that got the crowed bored including me guess the saying "too much of a good thing is bad" applied in that situation whereas the likes of Tumi, Reason & Tuks just to name a few only performed for 5minutes then their time was over. We needed to hear more of their performance though, but who are we to chang...

He describes himself as the most hated Producer, the guy you all love to hate some says he's got such a huge Ego some says he must work on his attitude and he believes that he doesn't have any attitude towards anyone but a strong belief to his music capability.

Big Weazy's Classics: The name is Big Weazy's Classics, I'm a very talented music producer and songwriter born and raised in a small town called George...

I had to give myself an original ide...

ARE YOU TREATED AS AN INFANT IN THE HIP HOP SCENE

Image
    Hip Hop people have that tendency of saying you just an infant in this Hip Hop movement so went down to the streets of cape town what we really wanted to know is? How does one feel when people start treating them like they don't exist or they don't add value in the movement and how do you respond to such statement? Is it a necessity for people who claim that they been too long in the game to offend you guys like that? And this is what they had to say about the whole thing       Schnida Nyembezi Hell no... I'd like to say it's not about how long you've been doing it BUT it's about now how you're delivering not to disrespect the Legends but respect must come from both sides and do music. So to answer your question it ain't no cat has a right calling others with that.   Asanda Gwedz-Naytor Dywili My sister it's not really about how long you been in the game or whatsoever. The game need smart people, people who...
