In this exclusive interview with SA_Rifa, we talk about her new single, 'Two Eyes', music, and the current state of affairs in South Africa

Damian Marley is the most versatile and prolific of the Marley family. He bridged the gap between conscious Reggae and Hip-Hop/R&B. At a time that both genres were veering off to commercialism, Junior Gong released music that upheld the root of these genres in terms of lyrical content and musical authenticity. 

"Strongulation" strangles the listener into listening to a collection of themes and moods that come straight from the dragon’s mouth, hot and heavy.

People say that babies, young kids, are like uncut diamonds, they just need polish. But that is not true.

It is exactly the opposite. We are born near perfect, most of us. It is because of the scratches, the trauma, that is inflicted upon our soul, because of the bad things, bad people, we experience in our lives, the diamond that is our soul becomes blurred, out of focus. 

As a musician and a Gospel entertainer, I really and truly believe we need to stand up for what we believe in, Kelley says. We need to come together as a country and stop being divided. I write music just to spread a positive message. I don’t believe in doing music with violence. I have the right music that is good for people to help them understand the positive message I’m bringing. I want to continue to write music and continue to sing positive things in reference to anything that is primarily negative. I want to turn those things into something positive if I can.

This EP/Mixtape is a fusion of 80’s #RnB and old school Hip Hop! #SFTC brings you back to the good ole block party days! Guest DJ’s coming through the block party and rocking their set and Monique Nikkole is singing and straight-killing it over their set. This is Hip-Hop lore, people!
