Black's Back!
I couldn't believe the first time I heard this cat flow, I knew then we had to hit the studio. He heard the beat once, and was done lacing it 15 minutes later. 1 Take Classic....Effortless Flow....Black to the Core! 

Black:The Good Soul - Siyabangena (We Entering Them)

This is where King is taking it to, to the point where we are asking, how much more floetic can he get, the track is immaculate, audiophile class quality.........we present a return to what we love about Real Hip-Hop......... Stress!!!

Stress

King - Stress

This track represents the goings on in the  urban jungles of South Africa, Rand Nation, where many dreams are made, and some taken.......the streets can get rough, so watch your step, but understand that it's all part of the rhythm of the day, and the rhythm of the night.....feel the rhythm of the street!

King and Tumzin - Rand Nation

This is an ode to Neo's (King's)Mother, to give thanks and respect to the greatest influence in Neo's life and his rock of Gibraltar. She stands strong in the faith that her son will continue to do his best, and he doesn't dissappoint with this track. Dedicated to you Mum!!!

I Made a Promise

Mantshabi( Pronounced - "Man-Tsa-Bi") is the ultimate display of artistic expression by King and Krossword. The word play makes us believe that Hip Hop is indeed alive and well, and these artists bring true delivery and floetry to this record. The song talks about the love-hate relationship with a beautiful woman that was desirable, but too beautiful to approach......until we did, and discovered that it was alot more than was bargained for.
The track was conceptualised and produced by King, and Krossword's collaboration on verse 1 is truly outstanding, and the perfect compliment to a track that is ahead of it's time.

King and KrossWord - Mantshabi

This song is about Hip Hop......it dont stop!!!!

Hip Hop Don't Stop (Feat Amzo)

Kitz, Mo Lez (Wiz Kid) & Fi (Free Flow)

This is an old track, one sourced from the archives......I call it the Midnight night shift. Recorded on Mo Lez's beat, totally unrehearsed, unplanned. Mo Lez(wizKid) blazes two verses, and kills it on his own beat. Its been years since I heard this, amazed at the variety in flows.....

I am dedicated to sharing the tracks I have recorded through the years, some, like this one, which until now, have only been heard by me.

Everyone on this track has dedicated their lives to music,.........we all do it.....for the music.  Watch out for more!

Midnight Shift - Kitz, Mo Lez & Fi (Free Flow)
