MOFF G - CYBER CIPHER: The Phantom Menace

ON the 02/10/10 after a delay on the initial ddate for release MOFF G finally dropped  the link for a classic record.
With that the 'CYBER CIPHER' began it's menace!!

That intro really embodies the idea behind this masterpiece of imaginative music writing. He then jumps on announcing his claim to the microphone with a banger on the lighter side; 'MY TIME'. I also found out Guy likes to be a big man in this business as he states on the track titled 'CLASS ACT', He takes it back to where it began with that joint.
MOFF then tackles the corrupt government that governs AFRICA as a whole, but he is being local, this is all reflected on the track; 'ORDINARY SLAVE'.
HE makes an unofficial take over plot on 'NU DAY' whilst all unravels with a back up of his long time buddy nd rhyme partner WARLORD in a track duly titled HOSTILE TAKEOVER'


THE production line up is off the hinges with the all time favorite, ZEB representing AFMP. Then FIN takes over the baton with laid back melodics, that kicks a hard snare. J-oNE is on that ol skool feel but with a bump and grind.
WARLORD is the mastermind for this takeover, representing CLAN -ORANGUTAN.
SOULYRIST/MR. VENICE takes out his android for on a joint by FIN, the NU DAY.


MOFF extends his word of thanx to all involved in making this project a success. LEBZOTIC we rise up from the ashes like a phoenix.

THIS is a true reflection of the man's skills and microphone prowess. he is versatile as that ...as he would say "DO ENJOY"

NGOANA' N'TSOANA: CORE WRECKAH

COORPORATE NEMESIS is at it again presenting to ya'll CORE WRECKAH!
this is just a teaser from his upcoming album.
true vernacular spits with a deep soothing voice to entice a listener for the whole night.
this jam has made me take note and wanna listen to dude's stuff.

this right here a banga was produced by DIM LIGHT. with such a mellow beat u sure to tap ya feet.

this is what the label had to say about this single dropping:
"This is not Sesotho funk. This is not mountain pop. This is hardcore hip-hop delivered with a gutteral growl akin to the style which has been perfected by the long-standing tradition of Basotho freestyle rappers (liroki), and replete with call-and-response chants which have become a staple of Basotho music"

we await to hear the official drop and the definite dates of release, be sure, i'll keep u updated on the next drop from dude....don't sleep on the dude: CORE WRECKAH ON THE RISE!

THE HOLSTAR: Six Sixteens


this is by far the best week two post in a day!

ladies and gentlemen, this my dude the big rhyme slayer representing LSK. part of the Zone Fam.
THE HOLSTAR has been riding beats for a while now, got many beats and joints up his sleeve.

"I wanna Rock - prod. Scoop Deville" this is a sure summer banga, that'l get ya'll up on ya feet and raising the roof. well excecuted.

not much was said by the ZONE FAM or THE HOLSTAR himself about this offering, but i beleive he trusts his music to speak volumes, when bumped on high level of volume.

these are the SIX SIXTEENS take u back to your teens....dig this and never sleep on the kid.

SAN THE INSTRUMONUMENTALIST: GOLDEN CHARIOTS VOL. 2


again, the master of production is back up against it, dropping fe ya'll a classic remix compilation. this is the up an coming project, don't sleep on this.
this is an official statement from "AUDIBLE BRAILLE ENT." about the release of another offering from San.

the dude has been at it for long now, working with an array of producers to come up with innovative but yet classic music.
i can't wait for an official leak or drop of this album.

this is what he had to say:
"“Golden Chariots VOL 2” is a remix project and is the second instalment in the four part producer series. With this offering my focus was much more on trying to understand the multiple dimensions of production and not just the beat making aspect of music creation. In more ways than one, the project is designed to put on display one producer’s rich versatility as well as uniqueness and growth in beat design. Moreover, VOL 2, being a remix project also humbly serves to give the listener a FRESHER take on their favourite songs"

the cover alone takes u on another level. so just wait on the music to drop....coming soon!!
