Tweezy’s beat tag has become such a distinct signature in South African Hip Hop that many argue that it was he who first popularized the production trademark locally.

The rapper/ producer grew to popularity from working closely with AKA and producing some of the late rapper’s biggest hits including Sim Dope and All Eyes On Me. In the latest episode of Choppin’ It, the established beatmaker talks to Bhuda T about his upbringing and influences, as well as the serendipitous technical glitch that led to his well-known “ayoba” tag.

The two also have a lengthy chat about Tweezy’s relationship with Forbes, his short-lived Producers Must Rise campaign, working with Ambitiouz Entertainment, and much more.

Tweezy goes on to offer an on-screen apology to Dj Sliqe, inspiring Bhuda T to make an apology of his own.
