Absolutely gutted about the death of Prokid, Linda Mkhize, at 37. Diminutive in stature but a giant of South African hip hop. One of the first artists I interviewed, back in the day, who helped me realise the power of the culture in a local setting and of lyrics in vernac(ular). pic.twitter.com/F5GIZu9VJ5

Our very own Eminem. Ask any rapper. No one. Absolutely no one wanted this type of smoke. He was the best there ever was, the best there ever will be. I’m blessed to have called you a brother. You will forever live in my heart and headphones ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ pic.twitter.com/B9wBCi5LZi
