It’s bigger than hip-hop

Midrand Graduate Institute, student res car park, it was at night, 2006

One of my favourite rap songs. I remember listening to it with my man Roscoe inside his Corsa. Bobbing our heads to the sick beat by ‘The RZA’.

It was satisfying to see how another person appreciated it with such excitement. Especially that he just played it without me telling him what it meant to me.

The pure energy that we both expressed in appreciation of this masterpiece wiĺl always stay with me.

A truly memorable experience.
