Sisters 'n RAP

UNATHI MPOTULO EMCEE CPT My name is Unathi Mpotulo , but I go by Uneek . I’m a hardcore hip-hop emcee hailing from Cape Town. I started rapping at the age of 12 and I've been in the game since the early nineties. You’ll hear a lot of malevolence in my lyrics. I own half of a budding company called Da Insane Entertainment , which deals with music, clothing, graphics and events. I’m also steadily infiltrating the market with my street¬-wear label Skill Born . I am the other half of a hip-hop duo called Informal. Growing up I listened to Rza , Army of the Pharoahs , NWA and Dogg Pound Gangster . Now I am into Skeem Team, Tech Nine , and Snow Goons . I do hard, aggressive and lyrically on point music. Sisters 'n Rap was also with Uneek in Bushradio 89.5 fm at the Headwarmaz Hip Hop  show where she told us the Bushradio listeners about the journey of Sprite competition and shes the only female who made it to the top 4 finalist of the competition among...

Something I went on to discover as I interviewed him further. Kayswag is a 22 year old Rapper/Graphic and Fashion Designer. A Multi-talented being who began MCeeing from as early as 2005 even though it wasn't as serious as it is now. Like most Rappers, Khanya Fusi, whom at the time was still focus on studying, met a person known as CypherLyric who introduced him to a diverse range of hip hop activities like battling and the ever so interesting cyphers. In 2009 he moved to Cape Town from Bloemfontein, Recorded a Mixtape with his crew and the rest, as they say, was history. SnR: Did the attending the cypers and battles inspire you to take hip hop more seriously?  KF: I had a low self esteem back then. I underestimated my abilities. As I grew older, I began to understand my abilities better. The Cyphers drove my passion  SnR:...

Hip Hop is a MALE dominated genre where you will find few female rappers in the industry, we even hardly see female rapper at the line-up.  Being a female in Hip Hop Industry is very challenging whether you an emcee, fan or a event organizer because mens don't take females serious. Women's are facing lot of challenge across the world not in MUSIC only, we live in a Country where you will hear on the newspaper,radio or television that a women was beaten or she was rapped.

Same ladies who support hip hop in Cape Town quit because of such behavior.   Cape ...
