1kind 4 ur mind

[1kind]

Greetings AG fam. 1kind is planning to release a digital mixtape in July. This is mainly a promotional activity, so the music will not be for sale. The mp3s will be made available on AG and upon request on any other file hosting site.

The mixtape is called 1kind 4 ur mind. It is mainly a collection of material that I've been constructing  since 2006. I've held onto it for a long time so this will be my way of putting it out there, and starting on a clean slate. This will be a prelude to a few projects that 1kind is involved in, most of which will be in circulation before the year is over.

There is a Drum N Bass project..with a new talented Cape Town based producer. [still to be completed].

There is an alternative rock project that has been in the pipelines since 2008. L.I.F.E...or Lessons In Finding Enlightenment is the name of the group.

I'm expecting to do many collaborations this year. One of which will introduce 3 young talented emcees from Cape Town, namely: Macingo, Worst and Coomz. The project we are working on is already 4  tracks deep [it will be called... I sweet le jam but more on that later  ]

Of course there are those who already know the more poetic side of my performances. I haven't done much in that regard since Poetry Delight in 2008. I have too many pieces lying unused in my old notebooks so I will be visiting a poetry spot near you very soon.

There might be a nice surprise for the people with me and Zaki....

And of course, I will continue to try and expand the Headwarmaz Show. I have been putting in a lot of work on the show, and I'm proud to be part of the exponential growth of Cape Town hip-hop. [Go to www.bushradio.co.za for more information, or come and join the 'Headwarmaz' group on facebook]


About 1kind 4 ur mind

Stylistically, 1kind loves to be easy on the listeners ear. So expect the majority of the beats to be laid back, boom-bap a la 9th Wonder, to accompany the versatile flow. I prefer content that will keep the listener engaged long after the first listen. I try and stay away from in-your-face punchlines...so do not expect too many "aaaaaaawwwwwhhhhh" moments. That is all I will say...the music shall speak for itself.


The track listing will be as follows.

1. I'm so ready
2. Underground bound
3. Hot like chakalaka
4. Cingisisa K'qala
5 . Umuzi onotywala
6. Stay with me
7. We need more
8. Tears rising
9. Remember that day
10. A fish out of water
11. Inkululeko ayikho free
12. Without you
13. Akho mali
14. Fly-by-knight
15. It is [whoah baby]
16. Let there be 1kind

I will post the lyrics and the tracks soon. Thank you for your time and support.

Bro can we have an mp3 to listen to before somebody Colin Powels you?

Dope MC you are but nobody is gonna read this. If you want someone to read it put it on the poetry thread

[Myth]

If you want someone to read it put it on the poetry thread

lol...true though

[1kind]

  Alright. When all the mp3s are complete and ready I will add them here.  The lyrics will also be made available upon request. Just give me a week and some days...

I've finished recording the tracks and I wanted to upload an .rar file onto africasgateway.

I need help. I can't use mediafire (blocked on campus), and I tried to upload the file to zShare and mega-upload. Both did not work out. Please help.

In the meantime, you can check out the tracks streaming on www.reverbnation.com/1kind

I will make sure I make mp3s available for my AG people soon (with their help of course)

"Beef brings business but im not a steak holder" lol
"From ezilalini ndadlul' emaphandleni now im rocking cape town yo ndikud' emaqabeni"

Dude you so so so close to being my favourite MC on this side of the world! From that first time I heard you freestyle on Bush and those random freestyle on radio when you're just messing around I was really impressed.

I also noticed that a lot of people been sleeping on your poetry too.

Niggas, DONT SLEEP.
