Talente is a musician that chooses to express himself through the Hiphop culture. He chose the most expressive of the Hiphop elements – Emceeing. 

His roots are in the South Coast of KwaZulu-Natal, in a township called Gamalakhe where he was born and raised. A prolific storyteller who is born with the gift of song, he dabbled in a number of genres – from Schathamiya, Gospel to Afro-Pop in his early days. 

This is until he got attracted to the raw honesty and attitude that is in Hiphop. In 2007, he was part of a Hiphop group – Izingangamela. They ruled over the South Coast for two years before he eventually started writing and recording his solo material. 

“I was bringing years of what I learnt into one and sort of building an identify of the artist I want to be … a storytelling, raw lyrical emcee. I wanted to be the emcee that the OGs will respect and the new school will relate to whilst introducing myself - Talente” explains the man. 

A few community radio stations picked up his music. The giant UKhozi FM (with over 7 million listeners) gave him a chance to talk about his music. Gagasi FM also picked one of his songs for a Hiphop show with Ninja X and DJ Lab. 

Fast forward to 2017, after years of sparring in the ciphers all over the country … from Gamalakhe to Soweto – Talente is ready. 

The young man from Gamalakhe wants Africa and the rest of the world to know his sound. His first single called Ngvuseleni is off the yet untitled album that is to be released in 2018. Ngvuseleni is an emotional song that many can relate to. The lead guitar and the gloomy keys are something unusual in Hiphop. Having taken the time out to establish and grow his own business  (Da Record Media & Entertainment). In 2021 he came back with a new single call Jabula featuring one of KZN best lyricist and Hip-Hop legend Shon G on a collaboration project call RESPECT THE PROCESS, available on music platforms.The technic and lyrics are something of legends – Tumi (of Tumi and The Volumes) would be proud. Currently working on his first solo Album titled Ikhono. If anything else, his music is a sign of better things to come.

I'm a rapper,good lyrics,tight flow and awesome use of words

SLickAttack (Msizi Sponsor Maseko) is a vibrant upcoming artist whose creativity speaks for itself. He was born 08 May 1995 (Murchison Hospital) and raised in the rural areas of South Coast, Port Shepstone.  Whilst growing up he attended Port Shepstone Primary School (2001-2007) where his love for entertaining people began. As a little boy he participated in many playwrights, dances, art competitions and singing events. In 2007 when he was still just a grade 6 learner, being influenced by his role models Kanye West and Lil Wayne(at the time), he decided to start writing his own lyrics. He carried the love for writing with him to high school (Marburg Secondary School, 2008-2013)but it was in 2010 where he teamed up with childhood friends and fellow rappers Mthetheleli Malishe (Gee), Mthobisi Mazibuko (Mthobza), Samkelo Madulini (DJ Sam), Zethembe Gambushe (Toy Soldier) to collectively form the group "Guess Who!" In the same year they released their first ever recorded song as a group titled "Mr Swaggerific" which gained the group popularity at school. A mix-tape followed in 2011 and it was titled ''The Take off'' however it didn't sell many copies. The group split in 2012 because of creative differences but they still recorded many songs such as ''Turn up the lights", ''We Goin Beast", "Fvck It" to name just a few. All of which were released digitally and some of the songs received good reviews. In 2016 he teamed up once again with his childhood friend and former group member Mthetheleli Malishe (Gee)to form the duo "Slick & Gee". 

Slick is not only just a rapper but he is also a beat-maker, writer and producer in the genre of Rap/Hip-Hop. He is always looking to expand his horizons and understanding of music by exposing himself to many genres of music and he tries to integrate the other styles into his music. Slick sees himself as the next generation of rappers whose purpose is to make music that matters, music that touches the heart and soul, music which people who are struggling with life can relate to and find solace in, music that is for the MIND, BODY AND SPIRIT!
