I doubt that. Did he research that? Cos I have two boys who are emcees and well known in our part of the world, who are a doctor and a Chemist respectively.

There are a lot more, I'm sure.

Melo has an Mb.Chb and Thuli has a Phd in Pharmacology, which means at some point he had a Msc (it comes before the Phd)

Or are we only talking emcees who get national airplay?

he does have an msc in chemistry but i may be mistaken about the program he was in. he studied in the US. this info should be public knowledge so if u google you will get to the bottom of it. he is one of he biggest hip pop artists in AFRICa and i personally let loose in the club when i hear "10 over 10' and " kini big deal".

there is a thread somewhere on AG about Agians(some are involved in rap) who have other interests besides music and burning cats online.

Perhaps he is the only one that brags about it.. I have bumped into KONFAB in an academic setting more than we kicked it at a show or studio. He was working on an MBA through GIBS at the time. thats another example for ya

This is what I asked. Is it only people who get national airplay who are considered emcees? Are the local cats not emcees anymore?

I know several cats with masters degrees in various fields. Some of them are doctors too.

But, since we're defining emcee by the airplay now, I guess they don't count.

Kudos to him but if you went to a university where there was hiphop culture  then you must know more than one MC with a postgraduate degree.

We need more though.

lol... lets hope u wont brag about it too on yo next single  ;D. It jus shows that most hip hop out there isnt pro-education. we got a lot of emcees out there but they are mostly college drop outs. obviously education is not equal to skill on the mic.
