Let’s rewind to 2003 — the final LIVE mix of the year on UCT Radio. From 2003 to 2008 I co-hosted G.H.E.T.T.O.P.I.M.P with DJ Eazy & Richard Bradstreet, a show rooted in Giving Healing Education Through Teaching One Principles Improving Mental Position. Myself, Eazy and Mr. Fat (R.I.P) of Brasse Vannie Kaap were brought in by Richard & Fat Cat to help spark conversations around Hip Hop, community and socio-economic issues.
Out of this platform we formed HHESA (Hip Hop Education South Africa), formerly The Faculty of Hip Hop — an NGO that hosted countless events, interviewed SA Hip Hop artists, broke local music (90% SA was already our standard), collaborated internationally and ran meaningful school projects.
This mix was the last for 2003 — strictly underground gems, with DJ Ready D going back-to-back Beat Bangaz style.
All vinyl. All grit. All soul. Enjoy the crackles.
