I hereby call 2018 to be the year that the upcoming artist grabs the industry "by fire by force." From the beginning of the year independent artists have been aggressive with their impeccable music drops never failing to be vocal about their playing positions in the game, their hard work, and lack of support or recognition.
We would like to introduce you to Sgi Magalela, a Cap City rapper formerly known as Frost who has rebranded in order to better represent himself and his roots. He drops off his latest work titled Something Sgi Would Efen Say which is touched by the Midas hands of Beatmochini and laced with an "angry" sounding clip from ByLwantsa in the opening of the track. Lwansta perfectly contextualises the song as Sgi goes on to rap about the independent rap hustle, dedicating all his time and resources to it, not getting enough support along the way, as well as being often overlooked. The story of many a talent in our country to be honest so I know you can relate. Tap into this sermon and nod your head at every word the boy spits. Not yet uhuru mfanaka.
