#cRhymeMusic

Advised, forced & encouraged by some fans/followers and friends to come out and explain my hashtag (#) "cRhymeMusic" on all social networks I'm currently on hahahaha, don't get me wrong, I'm glad peeps step up and demand I elaborate, to me that shows that you'll out here is receiving my posts n music, so here I am, the "Reafer man" aka the "last mind bender" aka "the last MIC grabber", about to welcome you all into The Hempire, aka "The cRhyme Capital of the world"!!!




So tell me, what do you get wen u put a C in front of the word rhyme?
Exactly, pronounced like Crime, which by the way is the "systems" way of classifing people that don't have the "requirements" ( job qualifications ) or "hustlers" ( people who graft and earn in any and all ways possible to support themselves but mostly their loved ones ie families ) to make it in the dream world ( school, university, job, retirement, old age then death) a lot of the worlds population believe to be the "real" life we all have to live out.

CRhyme Music is, is my life, my way of life, not like RASTA as a spiritual journey but my very own personal way of giving hope to the non matriculated youth, to the elder who till today still doesn't know how to read or write, but can listen, it is RAP (Rhythm And Poetry) meant to spark new innovative ideas and new ways of thinking or processes of thought in everyday ordinary peoples lives. A bit more Black consciousness driven, my music touches on topics that affect the whole globe making it relevant for all races, as in now in the New World, borders are no more, currencies are futile, police are brutal towards the people wherever u go, you don't have to go to cinema's no more to watch movies, all u have to do is open ur eyes real wide, and see the movie, I mean, its the people vs corporations aka governments right now...

 cRhyme Music is like using good clean cannabis (THC, hemp) to prevent cancer from ever growin in ones body, it's like herbal medication, or a chat with a Buddhist monk or or the morning breeze while u excersize somewere tranquil & quiet with an abundance of nature around you, it is the feeling of awareness, of love, and of self in this new age of peace, is it a guide? Some ask... Ye I say, a "manual" hahahah, to escape the traps found along the journey of life setup by the dajjal (devils) aka the system, but most importantly, it is a conversation with me, were you don't get to say jack ish but listen, overstand, and spread the message ( but can respond on twitter or FB or our website).
...Coz wen I die, I want you to pick up my weapon, the mic, hold it like a mini cannon, and take it to them, till all our brothers n sisters are free, in the mind, body & spirit, cRhyme Music!

One Mic (New SABC 1 HipHop Show)

The "One Mic" Hip Hop Show on SABC 1.


 The News!

I remember that i was on twitter when I got a facebook notification, the tag was from someone I hardly ever interact with on socials but in person you know (S/O Lyrikal Kid and Mambosh), fede the tag was on the auditions poster with all the details, so I decided "tla ke ba kene" and to try out.
 
November 2016, preparing for the BoomBox Special edition event featuring " The Last Letta - Zubz" as our co-host for the night.
The Boombox was the same day as the auditions happening at Shine Studios, which is just a few minutes walk from the Boombox venue for the night - "Ko Spotong"

Boombox Poster: Zubz Seminar
  The Audition

Got to Braam around 2pm, met up with "Chro" at "KoSpotong", kicked it for a young minute as he was preparing to make an appearance at the "RAP Activity Jam" and as soon as he left for the SABC, I split to the Shine studios for the auditions, luckily the stu wasn't far from "KoSpotong", got there found a que, met up wit the judges, were told the rules and was auditioner number 147 or something.

Finally got to do my thing, made it to the 2nd part of the audition and after that was told wait for the call...
Soooo, its March 20L7 already, I havnt received any call, iv made peace cz I'm thinking I ddnt make it.
  
The Call

There I am chilled, working on the blog at the only internet cafe in my hood, 
same time downloading the Amandla Video "Shynin Armour" sent through, its finally here,
 the game changer, that "iniesta through ball b", smh. . .
I get a call wit a weird looking number? I'm like better not be debt collectors... 

Me: "hello, how may I help you"
Caller: "May we please speak to Andrew Poifo Mogotsi?
Me: "Speaking..."
Caller: "we calling from the one mic show on SABC 1,
 we'd like to inform you that you (I) have been chosen to be one of the contestants for the 1st season,
 pls be at the shoot (date) March in Braam blah blah bla..."

I'm ecstatic af, thoughts are racing, can't wait to tell the team and all my peeps...
I'm in the zone, focused, looking like Muhammad Ali at Rumble in the Jungle,  I'm about to drop an EP, this is a big break,
 some free marketing, lemme dala what I must.

 18 March 20L7

L7 at Shine studios, "The V"...




Mental focus
You could say "my palms are sweaty, knees week arms are heavy..." 
This is my one chance, I gotta grab it, this is for all those that believe in me, and for all those that don't believe in me! 

We had fun, S/O to Taseti, Bibi (Photographer) and Griot.

Omen Taseti, Griot & L7
Omen 7 Sirv
Stay tuned as I'll be updating this post with every shoot.
Peace Love and Happiness
