Not Over You (prod. by T. Hemingway)

This is a song I did over a beat by the very talented Žiga Murko.

It comes from my heart.. Just wanted to share it with you

Check out more of his production here: http://www.soundcloud.com/murkoziga 

Enjoy :)

Shoulda Woulda Coulda (prod. by Žiga Murko)

This is a freestyle I recorded a couple of weeks back.

Its been a while since I uploaded, so I thought to share it with you.

The beat is by the ever so talented, Nu Vintage

You can check his beats out here: https://soundcloud.com/nu-vintage



Do You Still (Freestyle)

I accidentally deleted this from my SC a while ago

Its an oldie but goodie.. Hope you enjoy

MF DOOM on the production <3

Melancholy

The Groove (Get Down)

So.. Its my birthday! Thought to share a track as a gift from me to you!

Production by the ever so talented aso. Check out his stuff here: https://soundcloud.com/aricogle

Come Get It (prod. by aso.)

I decided (right now actually) to start an acapella series of 'Turn-up' covers.

First in this series is a cover I did a while back of "Bandz A Make Her Dance", but I had not really shared it with many people.

This will happen every Friday for the next few weeks. All Hip Hop. All Acapella.

For alternative download, follow this link:

So, look out for #TurnUpFridays :D

Bandz A Make Her Dance (Acapella Cover)

This is my take on "Lifestyle" (my current favourite of the ratchet bunch).The joint is originally by Rich Gang ft. Young Thug & Rich Homie Quan.

Hope you can rock to it (even add a bit of a nae-nae in there)

Run Jozi (Acapella Cover)

So here's my take on Chris Brown's (feat. Usher) hit single, "New Flame". Its definitely a favourite right now.

Hope you've been enjoying the series and don't forget to share and like the shit, yo.

0 To 100/The Catch Up (Acapella Cover)

So, this is the last #TurnUpFridays for a while, and I decided to end it (for now) with a bang!

This song has been terrorising the internet, radio, TV, errthing fam. I decided to cover the Fabo, Busta, Montana and Bobby Shmurda verses. Hope you enjoy my interpretation.

Hot Nigga Remix (Acapella Cover)

This is a track I did over a https://soundcloud.com/shungubeatmaker beat. He is SUPER dope and I hope you dig the song :)

You Don't Love Me (prod. by ShunGu)

This should've dropped with my first EP but it didn't make it (for a reason I don't remember lol). Its literally like a decade old and its not mastered. I don't even know if I went by Melo B Jones yet.

Scott Ross produced this one -before he became Agnal Olecis. I bump it all the time nje. Enjoy :)

After The Storm (prod. by Scott Ross)

Wanted to share. So thats what I'm doing.

You & Me

Imbawula is an evening of story telling that takes place every other Thursday in Johannesburg. As the residential musician for the night, I entertain where I can.

This recording is from one of those evenings. I hope you dig it. S/O to my Musical Director and keyboardist @vthevowel

P.S. The "Party" is an adaptation from the Moonchild cover (which I love with all my soul) and  I'm using a loop station for "Thong Song" (so all dem beatboxing and vocals is me par'ner)

Party/Thong Song Covers (Live at Imbawula)

So, Its my birthday! And I give gifts on my birthday. Here's a little snippet I'm working on with producer extraordinaire @thmwy

Enjoy! 

Let You Go (Snippet) (prod. by T. Hemingway)

So, this subject has been on my mind and in my heart for a minute. I’ve been thinking about how we never celebrate this unattainable magic that we all possess as black girls. We’re always waiting to just be seen (let alone celebrated). I think I was also tired of our stories being told on our behalf. This is a dedication to black women everywhere. Hope this means something to you all. 

This is also an unofficial/official bootleg of the intro (Black Panther) off of a tape called #BEEFNGRAVY by the illustrious Irrelevant Papi. So many dope artists featured on it (including the lovely lady who recites the poem in this song, Letters Fitzgerald).  Be sure to cop the whole tape here: http://irrelevantpapi.bandcamp.com/album/beefngravy

Crushin' On (prod. by dukehugh)

So, this is a cover I did of Emtee's hit single "Roll Up" live and acapella at an event called Imbawula.

I used my loop station (Dimakatso) to assist with all the sounds. So, all beatboxing and vocals are recorded live and played back in real time.

Listen to the original here: https://soundcloud.com/emtee-the-hustla/emtee-roll-up
