How can you not be excited about SA hip hop?!
Ben Sharpa and Raiko are about to do a 16 show tour of Europe including warming up for Raekwon at the German leg of the Only Built for Cuban Linx 2 World Tour. It doesn't get more exciting than that! It's not like Sharpa is warming up in his home town by default - Rae's team specifically selected him for a Euro show.
I could go on and on about the stuff we have coming up, but it would just be seen as blowing my own trumpet - I'm excited though, even if no one else is 
this is too dope! how did they pick him out, yo?
all of this is really amazing, but honestly, i'd be more excited if i'd just heard we were about to hear a new album by the cat.
Our artist manager is in contact with Raekwon's Euro tour manager. She played Ben's material to Rae and that was it.
Sharpa's album is only being released in Europe later this month so they're still catching up with us!
But... we've got 16 tracks for a new show for Sharpa called '4D' - it's basically an hour long audio visual performance concept featuring live audio production, DJ cuts and effects, a singer, a VJ and of course, Sharpa. It will be dope.
Sharpa is also featured on Chris 'Daddy' Dave's forthcoming mixtape (Chris Dave is Mos Def's drummer).
We've also started sourcing beats for Sharpa's next album - he has a concept and has started writing. That won't be out until 2010 though.
We do have lots of really nice material still to come out this year though. 2 albums from Jaak. An album from KONFAB, an album from Gin-i Grindith and Planetary a**ault 2.
We've also got amazing new videos for
Camagu by Driemanskap and
Streets by Rattex coming out in the next few weeks. We've been working with a new production company called Greenhouse who do amazing work - 10 levels up from anything we've done so far.
Anyway, apologies for all the self-promo - but these are definitely exciting times.
