Pioneer Unit is proud to announce that we have completed a deal with
Driemanskap.
Hailing from Gugulethu, Cape Town,
Driemanskap is a 4-man crew made up of members
El Nino,
Ma-B,
Redondo and
Dla. Together they form the vanguard of the new generation of proudly South African Hip Hop artists who understand that Hip Hop, more than any other musical art form, is about addressing important issues and representing where you’re from.
Driemanskap are one of the pioneers of the
Spaza movement, representing Cape Town with a rhyme style that combines their mother tongue, isiXhosa, with English and Cape Flats slang.
We plan to release
Driemanskap's long-awaited full debut album,
Igqibhukile Inyongo, in the first quarter of 2009. Expect a lot of new material before then though.
