I have new found respect from @dj_sabby. I don't know where to start... but his drive, his focus and passion is so admirable. His spirit is completely infectious. From listening to him talk, you can hear his passion for sharing knowledge and motivating others. His honesty is refreshing and it's a much needed approach to this music industry. I always say we need to come to a point where we can be openly honest about our industry on order to correct wrongs and elevate positives. He's also speaking at #MusicUnscripted and I'm excited for everyone to pick from his branches of inspiration. Come through yo'll... #16BarsRELOADED #TheForumOfRealness #MusicUnscripted

Finally met @djdimplez last night sealing off our DJ focus month. There's a very calm and reassuring aura about him. His humble nature reminds me that sometimes you don't need to be the life of the party to be impactful. This man is organic in all he does and most importantly his passion drives him. That's something to look up to. He doesn't concern himself with minuscule details and drama, he's an entertainer, a DJ above everything else. I respect his perspective and he has opened mine too. #16BarsRELOADED #TheForumOfRealness #MusicUnscripted

#MusicUnscripted the Pretoria edition is on. Don't let me down. I fought tooth and nail for this after the initial date we planned for got messed up a bit. We actually were not going to host this in Pretoria anymore, at least for this year due to venue openings. My speakers, so patient with me agreed once again. @slikouronlife @beatmochini @lesiba_m I'm still waiting for good feedback from SAMRO, RISA and a sweet surprise for yo'll. STILL at R 50. This initiative is really for YOU fam. Please let's stop this culture of wanting to be famous but not being open to learning how to go about hustling to get there. Because you act too cool for knowledge, then you come right back and make a fool of yourself to us with things we deliberately cover in these talks but because you think you know best, you don't want to learn. Get your priorities right fam. Knowledge is so key in this game. Just because it's all about entertainment and fun, doesn't mean knowledge is redundant. #MusicUnscripted #16BarsRELOADED #TheForumOfRealness

Was very excited to meet @misspru_dj cause AMENI😂💃 But most importantly to have the conversation about the importance of a journey. She's come a long and surely still has much to do. A key note that resonated with me is when she said "people look at us [Ambitiouz] and see the cool stuff but they don't know what we've been through..." and that's such a powerful example of her spirit as a sister and leader. Her warmth and gravitation towards excellence is refreshing. And of course, the fact that she's a woman should never have anything to do with anything. Here's to showing everyone else how it's done regardless of who you are and where you come from. #MmamorutiPru 😂#BecauseAmeniAkere #16BarsRELOADED #TheForumOfRealness

Met the spirited @djspeedsta last week on #16BarsRELOADED What a powerful young mind. Honest and focused. I can appreciate such people in the industry. I keep saying we need to start getting comfortable with truths in hip hop. Let's grow to places of self reflection and interrogation of our industry. We need each other's truthful accounts to improve. We need to bare open minds to absorb each other's perspectives too. I learned a few key things from my conversation with him. He's on YFM tonight, tune into the Hip Hop Floor cause it's all about advancing the game, not taking sides. #16BarsRELOADED #TheForumOfRealness

I officially met @djswitchsa last night after knowing him as a contributor to this game for so many years. Thing is, "we all breathe the same air" like he said. It's just tricky sometimes to pause this spinning wheel of a hamster race to get to know people 'cause let's face it everyone's on their own missions. That said, this man has seen the game from infancy to what it's becoming today and he's exemplary in that he's persevered through so much and has in the same stride kept a clean conscience through his ability to be genuine. I admire people like this. These are the heroes of OUR industry. Thanks boet'✊ #16BarsRELOADED #TheForumOfRealness
