6 immersive themes, one being the best in Africa
This musical celebration of home-brewed hip hop from ekasi (the township) and features a jam-packed programme led by local legends of this genre, with an exciting crew of emcees and singers. It pays tribute to music and artists from ekasi about life in the township.
Archie Sopazi (aka Dat) - who spearheads the line-up and doubles up as the director of Hip Hop Kaslam - is widely regarded as the founder of this style of rapping. Other leading emcees in the show are Ndlulamthi, Sugar, Mic Substance and Kritsi, with Skom Productions' Zozo Mohoto and performance poet Khanyisile Mbongwa as hosts and with a guest DJ on the decks.
Sopazi is one of the first local artists to discard the American hip hop culture and rap style and create one in his own language. He chose to rap in ‘ringas' which is a township street slang also known as tsotsi-taal. This evolved into what has become known as spaza today - a combination of various indigenous languages.
Transportation to and from the HIP HOP KASLAM event is provided free of charge, courtesy of the Baxter Theatre.
