New (not so new) kid on the block Mr Grind Smith has dropped his latest banger, the Highly Kasified mix tape, and it packs a lot of heat.
The first single Yabo speaks to the youth who are struggling amidst their circumstances to breakthrough. The phrase Yabo, loosely translated, means “you see?”
Highly Kasified 1431, released earlier on September, is set to be one of the most important mix tapes this year and beyond. This tape tells the tale of a young man’s will to survive in a world that is as rewarding as it is unforgiving. This ode to K1 (Katlehong) will be etched in the hearts and minds of the culture for a long time to come.
K1 is also home to some of the most respected rappers like Reason and Kwesta. This bears testament to the quality and consistency of the content coming out of K1. The fact that he is a respected musician that has had a string of successful singles playlisted on radio stations such as YFM, 5FM and KasieFM proof that with the right mix of talent and gusto all odds can be overcome.
He has performed alongside artists such as Jay Stash, Rashid Kay, Stylez, Quaz, Micasa, Kanivo, and many others.
Mr. Grind Smith is currently in the Top 10 Hip Hop artists in Johannesburg and has influence and impact in international territories as far reaching as The Netherlands and Los Angeles.
Mr Grind Smith is a versatile producer, lyricist, and performer and has steadily made a name for himself in the content creation field as a technical director, editor and boardroom goon.
His journey from the corner to the corner office proves that Mr Grind Smith is here to stay.
A self-made man.
