Shout out to all the blogs that have been putting out music for years now. Blogs have really helped to shape how people receive and perceive music . One of my major critique of blogs and media outlets in general is that we become too commercialized and we forget that the very essence of being an outlet is to expose good content . Back in  the days media took pride in finding and exposing talents. Also provide a platform where artistes from different countries and cultures can interact. This blog aims provide a global perspective, also an outlet for every industry ready artist that traditional media and more popular blogs fail to look at because they do not have the connections to push their art . There are a million and one Wiz kids / Davidos out there waiting to be discovered and i aim to find as many as i can .

Today , i present an amazing artiste via the name Steph Kapela. Stephen Nyankuru a.k.a Steph Kapela is a rapper from Nairobi Kenya . I first came across his work him when i watched the Cypher put together by Khaligraph Jones. Yesterday Kapela released visuals to an impressive song titled  “ Too Easy ” . I really love the Intro to this song . It has a very African Theme and it’s beautiful to listen to.  He really makes it seem Too Easy , don’t you think so ?  Watch below

These guys are relentless, their music is cutting edge and their visuals are breathtaking . ATWH is the acronym of Another Third world Hussle , the brainchild of M.Olaitan (eNaledge) – A Nigerian who resides in Toronto Canada . The movement has been a work in progress since eNaledge was deported from Canada to Nigeria in 2006. After spending 6 years reacquainting himself with his roots, he returned to Canada with a new sound and determination.

Last Night the movement released visuals to their Single, “ That’s all ” . You will love it . I have kept the video on repeat since last night.

Afro-beat is thriving and African artiste are in demand world wide. Hence, when an African artiste travels outside the shores of Nigeria for a tour or event, there is likely going to be an international collaboration in the works. A lot of the collaborations are promoted outside of Nigeria and they do not make it to the Nigerian media . Today , i came across one of such collaborations and i was going to post it because the song is very lit.

Jamaican dance-hall artist D-feezy collaborated with Nigerian Afro-beat heavy weight – May D, for a smashing hit.

Earlier in the year, May D toured several states in the USA, and Indiana was one of the cities that played host to him. The video was shot by HD Genesis film.

While Nigerian and south African rappers are arguing over what country possesses the illest rappers , Kenyan rappers are putting in work and taking over . This video is a warning to the rest of Africa, Kenya is here ! . As a result of Stogie T’s impressive freestyle on Sway in the morning , A.K.A called South Africa the Mecca of Rap. Those comments did not sit well in the stomach of Nigerian emcees and it resulted in some heated conversations on twitter. After you view this video, you would agree with me that Nigerian and South Africa should stop worrying about themselves but be more worried of the East African country taking over

“ Kenya is where to go if you wanna create the wave / We give these foreign artiste the platform and Major pay / Pacto pressure must be turning in his grave / cos Burna-boy insulted us but we still let him get up on that stage ”  – Shots fired at Nigeria. 

Khaligraph Jones introduces KHALI CARTEL 2 that Features some of the greatest and most lethal Mcs in kenya Namely, Steph Kapella, Twenny Eights, TImmy Blanco, Katapilla and Xtatic. The instrumental is created by Motif on the Beat while production is Handled by Aress66 under Blu Ink Corp productions.

Lil E is a very dope rapper from Indianapolis that i recently started following .  I just listened to this joint he put out some months ago about a close partner that lost his life .

It is a very sad song but it is also a song that underlines his ability to tell stories and document his life in his music .  Y’all should check out his album Guilty by Association here

May the soul of his partner DJ rest in peace .

Indianapolis is not short of talents . The City has talents that can hold their own against artistes from any city in America. Therefore, Indianapolis should not be in the shadows of bigger cities like New York or California.

Today I came across Dwani ; A Hip – hop artiste from Indianapolis, Indiana . I have a very high taste in music,  but after watching Dwani’s music video, i must say i am very impressed with the quality of his work .
