I thank god
everyday for the talent he has blessed me with, to express myself through music
and the arts. The wonderful people I’ve met and have yet still to meet when
travelling not to mention their love and support. I REMEMBER When team efforts
events hosted my listening session at an outdoor park and it started to rain
just when the performances were about to start, everyone who was there quickly
chipped in to secure the p.a system and we all went in unity to another indoor
spot where we set up and continued with the show. Everybody had fun and enjoyed
themselves that night. Memories as such keep me fired up and inspired to be the
best I can be musically and hope to give back to my supporters everything I can
artistically, my latest effort being the pending mix tape ‘pure African raps’.
I am in studio currently in the process of laying down tracks for the mix tape.
I have only 4 tracks that I did solo on the project of which two of them are
already available as singles for free downloads. To sample them you can visit www.kasimp3.co.za and search for cyrus the virus or alternatively you
can go to www.teameffortsmedia.blogspot.com to stream the tracks. One of the solo tracks on the
mix tape is going to be on vernacular which I felt was very important for me
and FOR THE BENEFIT OF my supporters to touch base on that, very challenging,
seeing that I’m used to rapping in English but IN A fun WAY. NOW, THE
COLLABORATIONS IM PLANNING FOR THIS PROJECT, ARE GOING TO BE A HIGHLIGHT IN MY
MUSIC CAREE FOR A LONG TIME TO COME I TELL YOU. ON THIS PROJECT I’LL BE WORKING
WITH SOME OF MY FAVOURITE ARTISTS WHO INSPIRE ME IN A WAY THAT THEY COULD NEVER
KNOW, BUT I’M SURE THEY UNDERSTAND THOUGH. SORRY FOR YOU, I’M NOT GOING TO BE
NAMING NAMES AND SPOIL THE SURPRISE BUT TRUST ME WHEN I SAY HAVING ALL THEM
PEOP’S IN ONE PROJECT IS GIFT FROM THE HEAVENS I SAY. During the recording of
the mix tape, a live d.v.d of the product will be shot and it will be flight on
the youtube channel ‘africanraps’. You can frequently visit that to get to see
the extra clips. SINCE IT’S A MIX TAPE,
I AM NOT THAT STRICT WHEN IT COME TO BEATS. I MIXED INTERNATIONAL AND LOCAL
BEATS MOSTLY LOCAL. I USED THE NEW SCHOOL SOUND WHEN IT COMES TO INTERNATIONAL
BEATS MY AIM BEING NOT TO ALIENATE THE NEW SCHOOL GENERATION FROM MY MUSIC AND
TO GET OUT OF MY COMFORT ZONE AND TRY SOMETHING NEW OF WHICH I HOPE MY LISTNERS
OUT THERE WILL FIND IT FRESH. WE EXPECT TO DROP THIS PRODUCT AROUND JULY OR
AUGUST DEPENDING….
