A South African rapper, out of the heart of Johannesburg.  Transcending the face of African Hip Hop, and moulding into a sound that is imperfect, a sound that is ambiguous, ground breaking and earth shattering, a sound that is breath-taking, an extraordinary sound, the sound of a new generation.

Priddy Ugly is pioneering a sound and style that will take South African and African Hip Hop to international platforms.

"Words are my pencil, beats are my paper, music is my art, and style.. Well that's in my genes, and the fit is so comfortable."

Ria Edna Nyarangi is a Kenyan emcee (songwriter, rapper, and singer) PKA XTATIC. Hailing from the capital city of Nairobi, Xtatic began her foray into 2012 with an independently produced song, “The Prep Track”, which caught the attention of major recording label Sony/RCA. Xtatic would eventually sign a multi-album deal with Sony, making her the first artist in Kenya to sign a recording deal of that magnitude.

Xtatic has been driven by the desire to properly combine the three elements of rap. “It’s all about content, flow, and delivery for me. It was when she was 17 that Xtatic began making moves into taking the words in her notebooks she’d been rehearsing privately into a more public space. Moreover, her singing, which she explains came first for her before rap - even though she showcases it less - reveals what a well-rounded artist she truly is.

She released her three-song EP titled Tatu in the last half of 2019. This is after the Let me Xplain Mixtape. released back in 2015, serving as a comeback after a two-year hiatus since she parted ways with Sony Music Africa. 

She dropped an amazing EP back in September titled TATU, and now, comes back with yet another dope compilation, a mixtape, soXial Xperiment, which sees her cover her own songs while fusing them with instrumentals from other artists' works, there are also original works in there. She is bringing forth what can only be termed as a beautiful and wholesome experience for her fans, where she showcases her raps, sing-rapping, and alluring voice as she sings.
