EP50 | Lessons from 50 Years of Hip Hop with Nyambz

In episode 50, we celebrate another milestone episode in line with 50 years of Hip Hop. Joining me to reflect on lessons, experiences and how Hip Hop impacts it's participants and followers, I'm joined by legendary producer Nyambz. We discuss the collaborative approach to creating music, his decision to not partake in the drugs and supporting for a friend who is dealing with addiction and the dual nature of Hip Hop and much more. After winning the African Hip-Hop producer of the year, in 2004, at the tender age of 19, Nyambz influence in the South African Hip-Hop industry escalated to great heights, crafting classic material for some of South Africa’s top acts. He’s worked with the likes of Zubz, Tumi, Optical Illusion, Proverb, Prokid and Tumi & the Volume just to name a few. He’s also produced tracks for acts across the African Continent, and a host of international acts, including Main Flow from the legendary Cincinnati Hip Hop group “MOOD”. His strength lies in his ability to delve from genre to genre without losing the quality in music that he strongly stands for.
