In recent weeks, or perhaps even months, my patterns of music consumption have undergone a significant transformation. I recall a time when I consumed music purely in the spirit of discovery, eagerly awaiting each week’s Spotify Discover Weekly playlist to unearth raw, emerging talent within the South African music landscape. But lately, I’ve gravitated toward the familiar ; revisiting songs and albums that I already know, merely to stay afloat. Concerning, right? Especially for a self-proclaimed music fiend and someone deeply entrenched in music journalism. Perhaps this shift is a symptom of age catching up with me, or maybe it’s simply the consequence of an increasingly hectic schedule. Whatever the cause, one thing remains steadfast: my love for music is unwavering. Amid this change in my listening habits, one artist managed to disrupt my routine : XavierThxmas, a Hip Hop and Trap artist hailing from eMalahleni, a town in the neighboring Mpumalanga province of South Africa. He first caught my attention with his track “Shukela,” featuring Flow Jones Jr and LaCabra—a song I stumbled upon through LaCabra’s Instagram page, immediately prompting me to rush to Spotify for a listen. Who would’ve thought Instagram would become the new tastemaker?

Released on June 7, 2024, “Shukela” is a high-energy Trap anthem, driven by an infectious hook and a pulsating production filled with heavy, dance-inducing rhythms. What truly captivated me was LaCabra’s verse, which I initially discovered through a snippet on Instagram only to find that the whole song is truly ethereal. And yes, kids, visuals do indeed matter. “Shukela” showcases the three rappers boasting about their fashion sense, lyrical prowess, and the strides they’ve made in their careers. From the moment I heard it, I made it a point to follow XavierThxmas closely, eager to see how he would build on this momentum. You can imagine my excitement when I saw that his next release would feature one of my favorite South African Hip Hop discoveries of 2024: NinoFresko

XavierThxmas has released a follow up single titled “Inkinga Manje,” at midnight , featuring none other than the Fresh Prince of Bethlehem : NinoFresko, and the production powerhouse, TheKidsNextDoor. In this track, Xavier and Nino Fresko trade bars about the challenges that accompany fame, using their sharp lyrical skills and rapid-fire flows, all while incorporating local South African languages to narrate their experiences as rising stars under the scrutiny of both media and fans. Their powerful lyricism is further enhanced by thumping bass, booming 808s, and hi-hats, while borrowing unique textures from the Amapiano genre’s iconic log drum.

Embracing soft piano keys, Juma Vybz unfurls a string of personal events that shaped his past year for the better on ‘No Option.’ With the grace of a poet, he again asserts himself as a top MC, stimulating audiences as he offloads his heart. His fiery rhymes ooze a striking quality better resolved by the track’s insightful outro.
As always, Juma Vybz has an intriguing story, and his latest delivers a powerful one. “The inspiration for ‘No Option’ is from the heart. It is my untold story. I have been through a lot in the space of a year, and this was my opportunity to air these experiences. It hasn’t been easy, but I had no option but to rise from the ashes again. Hence, the title.” He adds, “The main theme of this song covers a personal choice to not fit into the boundaries society has set for me while being okay with that. Rather than tear myself down, I want to use it to strengthen myself. The deeper message is to leave yourself no option; just keep pushing towards the light and you will rise above your situation.”

It’s a stunning journey, unfolding across graffiti-covered blocks, restaurants, and parks that showcase Juma’s swag. ‘No Option’ is poised to be a soft reintroduction to Juma Vybz’s exciting style, highlighting a new era for the versatile MC.

He has also made his stage presence known on big platforms, including renowned venues like Kings Hall Belfast, Empire Belfast, Voodoo Belfast, Birmingham NEC Arena, and Carbon Nightclub.
Juma Vbyz has been a joy to watch since the release of his debut album, “Made in My Bedroom” (2016). Many years later, he continues to prove why he is worthy of the hype.

Emerging from the vibrant Mozambican hip hop scene, the talented group Dare The Label has finally unveiled its debut album, entitled“TRUTHORDARE” Raising anticipation among their fan base, Dare The Label spent 2023 and early 2024 refining this album that has been in the making since 2021. Now, with the release of this catchy and truthful album, and the video for songs “Churrasco de Sexta” and “Uh Wi” they solidify their position as one of the rising new generation groups in the Mozambican music industry.
“Truth or Dare” is the process of evolution, maturity, discovery and identification of each member of the group. It is an album that talks a little about the challenges and difficulties that they and the young people of this new generation face and about the choices they have to make in a world that is getting faster and faster and that lives alot on immediate consumerism, choices that have different consequences and that swing between being a young person who follows the rules of society or bets on their dreams.
For the members of the group “Truth or Dare” means:
“ TRUTH OR DARE for me is evolution and maturity, a bit of both sides of each member of the group, in the process of recording the album we got to know everyone in the true sense, the good side and the bad side which made it create moments of happiness and momentsof disagreement and we realized that despite everything and above all the brotherhoodprevails because at the end of the day we want the same thing which is to be together contributing and showing the world what makes us who we are and what we have toof er. This album is what it is because of these energies.” – Wiika
“Truth or D.A.R.E. is a fusion of our ideas, which came about to create a link betweenus and those who will listen to the album. It’s the identity of a young person in our society, between vibes, dreams and frustrations.” – Van Dope
“Truth or DARE is my truth, what I believe in, my day-to-day challenges, the dif iculties insociety, the standard of living that society has set for an ordinary young person withdreams that were once forgotten, truth or dare is my vision of the world without obstacles, the vision instilled in listeners “that there is no pattern” only the truth and consequence of our choices.” – Retrobas
“Truth or Dare is about being prepared to make a choice and take the consequences. It’s a free way of living, without a doubt that the decision you make can influenceyou positively or negatively.” – INF8M8US
“Truth or D.A.R.E. is like a contract, full of important information between the lines. Eachsong conveys the emotion that each artist wanted to release with their verses. Aproject that allows you to experience two completely dif erent emotions, self-centeredness andaltruism in their purest form. I DARE you to hear the TRUTH.” – KAMETEE 07
“For me, Truth or Dare is a tool that we have found to create identity, motivationandarelationship between us and those who listen to us. The members of our group are inthesame age group, but each of us presents dif erent journeys about dif erent experiences, wewrite what we dream and what we live, despite our dif erences at the end of it all we aretrying to get to the same place. That’s why for me “Truth or Dare” stands for “LiveorSurvive” because there is no time to “Die”.” – 3GO
If it feels like it was only yesterday you heard of Lord YG, it’s because it was. Just a few months ago, the rapper announced himself as a rising industry force. He made huge waves, captivating everyone with then-new singles ‘Bittersweet’ and later ‘Steeze and Vibes.’ Now, he returns with two more tracks: ‘Better Days’ and ‘I’m Gone,’ and they do not disappoint!
Of the two, ‘Better Days’ bears the torch of hope. Lord YG’s heart unfolds over soothing piano keys as he reminisces about the days when he had it rough. Thankfully, he never let the ball drop and kept pushing: “I came far. I cannot quit,” he asserts in the hook. Each verse he lays on the Faygo production evokes memories of the rapper’s past and ambition, uplifting audiences through a flurry of well-crafted bars. While ‘Better Days’ uplifts, ‘I’m Gone,’ produced by Zodivc, seeks to empower. It is a testament to the power of resilience, making it the ultimate Survivor Story. Contrary to the former, its piano keys are more somber. They are expressive of Lord YG’s journey through the wire. Here, the rapper excites with relatable narratives, sharing his battle scars. He manifests the personality of a wise sage through a catchy hook that breeds inspiration.
Both songs deliver stellar wordplay and rhymes that will pique the interest of Hip-Hop enthusiasts. They showcase Lord YG’s refreshing style and knack for gripping street tales, building anticipation for his upcoming project. Speaking of what’s to come, the rapper told the press, “I am currently finalizing my first major project. It will capture the essence of my life’s experiences and journey through deeply personal narratives.”
After being immersed in music since childhood, it was only a matter of time before Lord YG, born Festus Aziamakpor, blew! His gripping street tales–inspired by Accra’s hard-knock life and vibrant culture–offer an exciting glimpse of his youthful yet old soul. Though relatively new, Lord YG’s music, a striking blend of Hip-Hop and Afro-tinted sounds and anything in between, is already setting the airwaves ablaze.

X, formerly known as Twitter, is my favorite social media platform —and for good reason. This platform has introduced me to some of South Africa’s finest hip hop talents, with one standout being Novl, a sharp lyricist and rapper from Polokwane, South Africa, the same town that produced the legendary TuksSenganga. My first encounter with Novl was two or three years ago during a #Rap4Eatzz space, where his impressive freestyle immediately caught my attention. Fast forward to today, and I’m proud to call myself a loyal member of TheBook Club, the community Novl fondly named his supporters.

Fresh off delivering a captivating performance, showcasing his lyrical adroitness on Oriiginelle’s “16s & Some,”Novl is back with his new single, “Skoloto,” which honors his hometown of Polokwane in Limpopo. Produced by TriggaNasty and mastered by NacosOfficial, “Skoloto” builds on the momentum Novl has been creating since October 2023, when he began hinting at his forthcoming project, “Clichés and Realities.”The project has already been teased through two preludes, “Costly Sacrifices” and “Borrowed Time.” Novl’s contributions to the South African hip hop scene are becoming increasingly significant, with standout moments like his electrifying appearance on StayLow’s “No Paperwork Freestyle” in August 2023. He has also collaborated with several South African hip hop heavyweights, including Tyson Sybateli,Wordz, Trophy, and Venomraps, to name a few.
Novl’s No Paperwork Freestyle
“Skoloto” deeply resonates with South African listeners, particularly for its use of the phrase “Sam Sokolo,” a nod to the beloved South African TV show about four township taxi business owners struggling to survive. The phrase “Sam Sokolo” holds even more profound cultural weight—featured in the song’s hook, it symbolizes the tenacity and determination that define South African life. Echoing the sentiments of TuksSenganga’s track “Bona Fela,” “Sam Sokolo” reflects the fight to push forward and persevere despite challenges. This rich cultural reference adds depth to Novl’s music, turning “Skoloto” into a powerful piece that speaks directly to the lived experiences of his community.

“Skoloto,” meaning “debt” in English, encapsulates Novl’s connection to his roots through its use of local slang, evocative writing, and impactful messaging. The song provides insight into his current reality as an artist juggling life’s challenges while staying committed to his craft. What sets Novl apart from his peers is his dedication to creating music that encourages listeners to confront their own truths- as seen on his debut album HMB,LMR– an acronym for “Hold My Beer , Let Me Rap.”
Listen to HMB,LMR here
This release sets the stage for Novl’s upcoming album, “Clichés & Realities”, anticipated to drop in the fourth quarter of the year. The title of the project reflects Novl’s philosophy: while he acknowledges the allure of fantasies, he believes that true growth arises from facing life directly, without the comfort of illusion. This ethos runs through all his music, particularly “Skoloto,” where he urges his audience to take control of their reality rather than escape it. Knowing how enigmatic and deliberate Novl’s creative process is, I can only wonder how his upcoming album will unfold. But one thing is certain—every move he makes is meticulously planned.

T1mmy might be young, but he has a wealth of experience in street matters. Since venturing into the world of rhymes, the Accra MC has been electrifying fans with his raw style, as evident on his debut EP, “It’s Only Us.” A chilling shot at the fakes, the rapper, who dazzled with singles like ‘Steeze and Vibes’ and ‘Nemesis,’ wants to make himself crystal clear. And he does. With two features and four songs, the rising rapper delivers like a 12-cylinder engine. He eloquently breaks his experiences in the trenches into quotables that the streets can’t do without, and we are all for it.
“Boys nyɛ real, never let that shit out of your mind” is one of the lines T1mmy delivers that deserves to be plastered on every street corner. His gritty opener, ‘Trust Issues’ (produced by Gloyo), quickly sets itself aside as a certified anthem for hustlers. If their opps thought they were cold, the T1mmy and SRT Gwalla are colder. The two captivate with well-pieced lines that put their experiences on the streets in perspective and their rivals to shame. UK-based artist SRT Gwalla, in particular, weighs in beautifully about his experiences in London, corroborating the insanity the two have had to live through despite being worlds apart.
Next up is the eponymous Faygo-produced, ‘It’s Only Us.’ T1mmy and fellow rapper Lord YG team up for this banging track, delving into why they distanced themselves from their wayward brothers. Like photographers in a darkroom, the two develop a vivid perspective for their actions, pitching the tent for the next song, ‘Won’t Understand.’ T1mmy goes solo on Hokatiwi light piano keys, wearing his heart on the sleeves. He maintains his aggression and grace on the self-explanatory track, drilling deep with lines that encapsulate why he’s scheming and leaving everyone puzzled.
T1mmy saves the best for the last. The pre-released ‘Priceless,’ another surefire hit produced by Gloyo, completes the rapper’s scintillating journey from rocky paths to smooth roads. It’s a track that echoes the promise of T1mmy and highlights his growth, exuding a sense of satisfaction whenever he sings, “You know the feeling be priceless. When you got it all out from the gutters.” The rapper’s tale cuts deep, revealing his authenticity through articulate delivery and fascinating storytelling.
As far as dropping gems go, T1mmy is only getting started. He is committed to catching fans off guard and channeling his authenticity into something special. “It’s Only Us” is a victory lap for the rapper, setting the stage for a promising future. While that slowly unravels, Timothy ‘T1mmy’ Kpogo plots to go harder than before.
