    There's a lot that goes into lyricism. I appreciate that Stogie T makes reference of literary giants like Bra Don Mattera, Can Themba and Dambudzo Marechera.

    Sir Stogie owns bars. You,Sir, made America respect Mzansi with your lyrical ability along with the great storytelling. Your verse on Sway's universe was an invitation to sway,and few months later he was here in the habitat of the hyena that buried he's satisfied ones in an elephant grave . Thank you Sir.

      And these guys don't even know rap came straight out South Africa. All they quoting is American rappers. In 1971 Donovan (aka) Afrika Bambata went to KwaZulu when were we commemorating the Bambata Rebellion and he was impressed by our poet Mr Khoza's praises of the Zulu kings and chief Bambata's. Took it to the States and came out with term RAP. And yeah, Reggae is Senegalese by the way

    Tumi must learn to relay his message in conversations as he does in music, I get lost in his explantions and what he's trying to say when he speaks, not that it's deep, he's just all over the place. Peace.
