Haezer ft. Tumi Molekane- Troublemaker (Official video)

Hundreds of sweaty electroheads crammed into Arcade Empire for the release of Haezer's 'Troublemaker' video on Friday night. Tumi Molekane lends his distinctive rhymes to the track, which tells the story of four badass kids from Khayelitsha with superpowers that they use to wreak havoc in the township. Good news is that the video was officially released today for everyone to see. Have a look, it really is impeccable.

Bloc Party's story

I quite like the idea of telling stories using different platforms. I used Storify to tell this one. It puts a whole bunch of social media together for a refreshing take on a live review.

This weekend

On Friday I was lucky enough to interview the lovely Zaki Ibrahim for Perdeby. She played at Arcade Empire alongside Reason with 37 & MPH as well as Tumi Molekane and Yesterday's Pupil. Tumi and Peach are, in my opinion, the most interesting collaboration around at the moment. At one point Peach was singing a piece from Bittereinder's  'Ware Verhaal' and Tumi was rapping. To see the two maestros sharing a stage was such a treat, especially when they performed 'The Beast' right at the end. 

And then there was Zaki Ibrahim, whose voice is rich and soulful. I love that every song is different and that her music is not confined to a specific genre. It's exciting and refreshing and has left me the most interested follower of her work. 

I really need to start taking my camera with me more often. I've gotten lazy because of my phone and the quality of my photos suffers. Apologies.
