This is an open letter to Nyambino, from a concerned fan:

Dear Inyambo "Nyambz" Imenda,

I have been following your music production from early on during the days of Fro-Pick, maybe even a little while before that when you were still making beats for Sceptre. It was always a joy for me to get a release and see one of your beats on it. Being the 'hard-drive wrecker' that I am, I have consistently perused through a lot of beings' machines, searching for that elusive beat-tape you made, that one jam that might have slipped through my fingers in my constant persuit to add to my collection of your beautiful music. Needless to say, some weren't impressive, but that was just a sand particle in the sea of the music you've crafted.

Time went on, and so did the growth of your work's catalogue. While I did appreciate that you were putting out stuff, I was not satisfied with the constant unfulfilled promises. For instance, the project with BecomingPhil (but this I shall skip since an official explanation has been provided), the LeftField project with Mizi (last I heard, y'all were still in negotiations, planning to distribute it as far afield as Germany), the Blak Lez and Damolaa projects (note that just 'saying' they'll be out this year is not enough)...and the list goes on.

What I am saying, Mr. Imenda, is that there is a universe of souls right here on earth - mine included - who would very much appreciate (and actually buy) your projects. Keep putting stuff out, see your projects through to completion, keep it moving. In the now-immortal words of Guru, 'Your potential is infinite'.

Please do not see this as an attack on your person, but rather a heartfelt attempt to get you to release something, anything!!! The Winter Beat tapes, the mixtapes, the 'This is a tape just for the sake of it' tape...whatever.

Thank you in advance,

Biz-ark-human.

PS. I am still holding you onto that Xenophobia project.

i remember the Sceptre tapes/ Haunted fort, beats were ahead of their time, mastering very inspirational, rhymes crafted and perfectly suited for the chariots they rode in, bumped them with heads in LES who stil think Nyambo is some dude trapped in a lab cookin gourmet overseas...

to Biz-ark, i couldnt hve put it better ma self. give us a tape Jeweler....

Whatever Nyambz may think of this (and best believe, he'll have his own opinion, particularly regarding the "unfulfilled promises" you speak of) I think the message is heartfelt. Hip-hop - not just hip-hop in SA, but hip-hop as a whole - needs Nyambo and producers of his calibre.

So unorthodox, Bizark, but f*** it. OK. Cosign.

co-sign!

Im not trying to make excuses for Nyambo - but nowadays putting a project out is as difficult as trying to hinder it being bootlegged. Especially trying to stop bootleggers like myself  :-\

Anyway - I feel for Nyambo - I too am running thru some terrible phases - bt I wish if only there was a source that could fund resources like ours without actually being greedy!

sorry to step in like this!  :-[

this is a problem with many projects in SA. you hear a lot about them and it takes forever for the projects to be released if at all.

Its not Nyambz that needs Music, but Music needs Nyambz... ;)  That kid is the truth. That dude inspired me a lot. by listening to his music more often, I'd figured out how to sample.

Charles Aznavour - Qui ?
Fugees - Cowboys
Something Bout Love - The Main Ingredient

You tend to find that people with monotone flows i.e. Sceptre/Masta Killa/Black Rob etc get neglected. I feel he has an emmense amount of flow. Plus when we were doing those songs we were teens and he still out flows tons of people out now.
