  • Episode 33 | Sophie's Favourite Song

    We Live In An Age, Where Feminity Is Abused, And Seen As Being Weaker, In Relation To Masculinity... Something That Befuddles Me, When You Consider What Women Go Through, And Often Have To Withstand, In Relation To Men. When You Realize How Hard It Is To Take A Dump, After A Bad Night Of Junk Food, And Chilling, You Grow A Different Level Of Respect For What Women Go Through During Childbirth.


    For Many Of Us, This Unappreciation Of Women, Comes From How We Have Conditioned Ourselves To Become Desensitised To The Issue - For Most Men, There Are Two Groups Of Women; Women They Know, And Other Women; Which Creates A Reality Distortion Force Field Around Our Brains, When It Comes To Dealing With Women Issues - How Can It Be Sexy For Your Lady To Be Dressed In Her Form Fitting Dress At Dinner, But When It's Somebody Else's Partner, Sister, Daughter, Or Friend, Then "She's Asking For Trouble"?

    As We Mature Into Grown Men, We Ought To Put Away Childish Things, And Adapt Our Thinking To Suit Where We Are, Or Heading To - That's How I View Maturity & Growth, As A Process Of Evolving Into A More Whole Creation, That Can Be Joined With A Partner For Life - The Way We View Women In Our Society, It Comes As No Surprise, That We Abuse, Divorce, Kill, Molest, And Take Advantage Of Women In Such A Way, And Remain Oblivious To How We, As Men, Play An Active Role In Things Being As Depraved As They Currently Are.

    It's Begins With Me, I Need To Become Part Of The Solution, Not Not Remain Part Of The Problem.

  • Episode 32 | Reinforced Support Systems

    As One Begins Construction On A Building, The Importance Of A Solid Foundation, And Reinforced Support Systems, Is Something That Cannot Be Overlooked, If You Seek To Ensure That The Structure Is Able To Stand On It's Own... That's How I've Grown To Understand Parenting; As A Joint Venture, Between Two Companies, Entrusted With The Role Of Building A Self-Sufficient Structure; When The Support Systems Within The Building, Are Lacking, Or Improperly Attended To, Due To Societal Realities, Like Divorce, It's Even More Pivotal, That The Building Is Reinforced, With An Added Support System, That Makes Up For That Failing Within The Foundation.


    My Father & I, Haven't Always Seen Eye-To-Eye On Many Things - When My Parents Divorced, I Found It Harder To Fathom The Extent Of His Apparent Lacking, Within My Support System - For The Longest Time, I Even Blamed Him For What He Wasn't Able To Be For Me, As A Father. When I Became A Man, I Found It Easier To Comprehend What He Was Going Through, Even As He Tried To Build A New Life, And Forgive Himself For Some Of The Choices He Made. I'm Growing Closer To My Father Now, By Grace, And I'm Grateful For The Reinforcement That His Presence Provides, On A Physical, Emotional, And Spiritual Level - I Wouldn't Trade Any Of That Hurt From The Past, Because It Helped Me Appreciate The Grace We Have As Father & Son Today, While Preparing Me To Fully Love My Seeds, In The Future - I Guess That Age-Old Adage Is True, It's Better Late, Than Never...

    While I Was Out Searching For The Love, That I Felt I Never Had, My Mother Did Everything She Could, To Supplement That Shortfall, And Some. My Mom Played So Many Roles In My Life, That I Momentarily Took Her For Granted, Through My Dependence On Looking For Some Outward Validation, Or Acceptance From My Father - By The Time I Grew Out Of That Adolescent Stage, My Mother's Love Was There To Help Make Me Whole Again - I'm Forever Grateful To My Mother, For Who She Is To Me, And Who She Raised Me To Be, As A Man. I Pray To Marry A Woman Who Embodies Such Character, While Being The Man Who Compliments Her, The Way A Man Ought To, And Give My Mother The Grandchildren She Prays For, To Continue Flowing Her Endless Streams Of Love Into, For Generation's To Come.

    May You Support Systems Be Reinforced, We We Continue To Fight The Good Fight... For Those Who Were, And Those Who Are Still To Come, We Pray For Freedom.

    Yours 2ruly.

  • Episode 31 | New Pitori Road

    Everything Is Cyclical; From Sports, To Fashion, Through-On To Church, And State; There Are Cycles In Which Most Things Move, A Reality Which Also Applies To Music As As A Whole.. Every Once In A While, We See A Cultural Shift In Music Genres, And Sub-Genres Alike - For A Plethora Of Reasons - These Cycles Are Often The Quantifiers, Through Which We Assess Musical Generations, Moments, And Legacies.


    The 4th Industrial Revolution, Helped Springboard The New Pitori Cultural Scene, Long Before We Knew That It Was Our Time, To Carry The Torch, And Spearhead The Changing In Status Quo; The First Mzansi Hip-Hop Revolution, In The Early 90’s, Was Spearheaded By The Underground Scene - Where Industry Staples Like Snazz-D, Ammunition, P.O.C. & Ghetto Ruff, Ruled As Kings - This Initial Wave, Helped Lead A Charge Toward More Mainstream Acclaim, For Hip-Hoppers In The Early 2000’s - A Movement Headed By HHP, Tumi And The Volume, ProKid, And Hype Magazine - This Upturn In Traction Continued, When We Saw Another Golden Age, For Local Hip-Hop, Post 2010 - Content Creators Became Established As Brands, And That Upturn In Recognisability, Lead To Where Mzansi Hip-Hop Culture, Is A Tradable Currency, In South Africa, And Across The African Continent.

    Today, Pitori Stands At The Cusp Of Her Own Revolution, As The Music, Street Lifestyle Culture, Street Wear Fashion, And Creative Direction, All Speak To The Unique Pulse Of The City - For Decades, Pitori Had To Be A Consumer Of Culture, Even When She Was Producing Many Of Our Industry’s Biggest, And Most Influential Cultural Figures - The Time Has Come, For Pitori To Showcase The Best Of Her Creativity, While Being Truly Recognised, And Remunerated, For Her Role, In Establishing Mzansi Hip-Hop As The Sovereign Nation That It Has Become.

    Welcome To New Pitori Road.

  • Episode 30 | The Jacaranda Seed Theory

    In 1888, Jacaranda Tree's Were Said To Have Been Planted In Pretoria, A Phenomenon Which Spread Into Johannesburg, Where Jacaranda Tree's Were Planted Soon Afterwards. This Landmark Event, Is The Reason That Many Parts of Johannesburg, And Pretoria, Are Beautifully Dressed In Purple, A Colour Often Reserved For Royalty.


    The Symbolic Nature Of This Reality Dawned Upon Me, As I Embark On A New Business Venture - Our Past, No Matter How Challenging, Often Prepares Us For The Things We Are Destined To Do In The Future - Having Come To Gauteng As A Picanin', Following My Parents, Who Were Themselves In Search Of Gold, I Inadvertently Found Myself Sown As A Seed, In A New Kind Of Rapidly Spreading Phenomenon, Hip-Hop Culture.

    When I Was Born, In The Early 90's, Hip-Hop Culture In Mzansi, Was Also Coming Into Being; That Was Our First Golden Age Of Hip-Hop Culture In S.A.; When I Was Beginning Find My Own Sense Of Identity, In The Early 2000's, Hip-Hop Culture In Mzansi Was Starting To Spread Beyond Just The Major Metropolises; Which Was Our 2nd Revolution; Then Came A Changing Of The Guard, Post 2010, As I Was Coming Into My Own, Hip-Hop Culture In South Africa Was Becoming A Tradable Currency; Which Marked Our 3rd Revolution; Placing Us On The Cusp Of Global Influence, At A Time When We Are Ready To Take Our Rightful Seat At The Table Of Culture.

    In This 4th Cultural Revolution, Our Movement Aims To Build A Platform For The Renaissance To Live Through.

  • Episode 29 | Reel Alignment

    There Comes A Time In Our Lives, When We Realize The True Capacity Of Our Abilities - A Time Where We Remember Who We Aren't, Define Who We Are, And Work Towards Who We May Be - It's Much Like Reaching The Apex Point Of Your Movie, And Finding Out That Your Story Continues...


    Being In Lockdown, Was A Trip For Me, I Found It Rather Restrictive At First... By The Time The Feeling Of Repetitive Living Begun To Set In, I Was Working To Rebuild My Processes, Revisit My Concepts, And Refine My Gameplan. The Time Has Come, For Us To Take Full Control Of Our Narratives, And Overstand That Value Of Us Playing Our Leading Roles, In This Movie We Call Life.

    Reel Alignment Is More Than Checking The Batteries On The Camera, Or Ensuring That Your Memory Cards Still Have Space - It's About Real Alignment; Of Your Goals, Your Purpose, And Your Plans - We Have The Power To Align All Things, In Accordance With What We Endeavour To Do, And Ensure That Our Movie, Is Based On Our True Stories.

    May You Make It Through The Drama, And Enjoy Your Movie, Knowing That You Are In The Leading Role.




    Jah Bless You!

  • Episode 28 | The Young OG Society

    Hip-Hop Culture In Mzansi Today, Is A Currency, One That’s Created Out Of A Now Burgeoning Economy, Built Off Of This Hip-Hop Thing Of Ours... It’s Wild To Fathom, How An Artform That Started Out In A Bronx Park, Has Grown Into A Global Conduit, Through Which Many Of Us Globally, Garner Sustenance From, In Some Way, Form, Or Fashion. The Time Is Ripe, For Us To Pick The Fruits Of Our Labour, As A Culture - The Fruits Of Harvest, Are Easily Collected, When There Is A Collective To Tend To The Work - Many Of Us Have Seen The Promises Of This Fruit, And Are Working To Bring Forth This Harvest, Yet More Often Than Not, We Are Working Alone, And Against The Tide... We Need To See The Bigger Picture.


    A Collective Movement, Cannot Be Conquered Through Individual Mechanisms Of Systematic Oppression, As Easily, As It Is To Undermine, And Derail An Individual Force. Our Culture, Thrives Off Of Us Coming Together, To Create More Opportunities, Jobs, Leverage, And Monies - The Time Has Come, For Us To Begin Owning More Parts Of The Hip-Hop Value Chain, And Elevating Upwards In This Business - With This Added Growth, Comes An Added Responsibility, To Put The Culture First, And Ensure That We Leave This House (Hip-Hop Culture), Better That It Was, When We Moved In.

    I Believe In The Young OGs Outchea, Both Locally, And Abroad... The Timing Is Right For Us, As A People - Decades From Now, They Will Speak Of Us, The Way We Speak Of Those Who Inspired, And Lead Us - Let Us Come Together, To Ensure That The Story They Tell, Is One Of Freedom; Freedom Of Equity Ownership, Freedom Of Artistic Expression, Freedom Of Positive Influence, The Freedom To Be, Who We May Be.

    Jah Bless You!

  • Episode 27 | Dream Chasers Anonymous

    We Were Taught, That Money Cannot Buy Happiness, Without The Caveat, That Money Does Buy Options... And That's Key, Because Having Options In This Life, Is Critical. Without Options, We Are Left Open To Making Bad Decisions, In The Name Of Trying To Better The / Your Situation.

  • Episode 25 | Broken Cellular Phone

    The Art Of Communication, Is An Oil Painting, That's Open To Interpretation; When I've Felt "Ghosted" By Someone, I've Often Reflected On Situations Where I've Been The "Ghoster", And Found Insight Into What Often Goes Into The Science Of "Ghosting"... Every Situation, Is Unique To The Circumstances That The Person / People, Find Themselves In... Sometimes, You Being "Ghosted", Can Be For Your Own Good, Due To The Person Being In A Space That's No Good For You, Or Them.


    I'm Now In A Space, Where I Value My Communication With Certain Folks A Lot More, While Also Having A Balance, Between The Types Of Engagements I'm Having With People, And The Level Of Transparency I Have, With Those That I Spend Time Conversing With. Speaking Your Truth, With Folks That Listen, To Understand, And Not Just Respond, Is One Of The Most Essential Gifts One Can Receive, And Give.

    May You Speak Life, In Transparency, And Truth!

    Jah Bless You, Ngwaneshu!

  • Episode 24 | I Can't Explain God...

    Life Is A Blessing - The Sheer Experience Of Living, And Living Full, Is What We Are Born For - In The Past 10 Years, Of Growth, And Maturity, I Lost 3 Brothers, And Fellow Soldiers For The Cause. While Life Has Taught Me; That The Lord Giveth, And The Lord Taketh Away, And We Should Give All Praise To God; I’ve Also Learned Something About Life, Through A Sermon, From The Prophet Robert Glasper, Who Noted How We Often Look At The D.O.B, And D.O.D. On A Tombstone, While Glossing Over The Most Important Part Of The Story, Which Is The Dash, In Between.


    The Dash, In Between, Is What I Remember My Brothers Through; They Lived, And They Lived Full; K Taught Me How To Be A Man, As A Young Man, Who Also Grew Up Without His Father Present, Pun Showed Me How To Be Confident In My Own Skin, As A Man Who Was Born In His Own Unique Set Of Circumstances, Lion Kid Instilled In Me, The Value Of Faith In God, And Faith In Yourself, As A Creator, Made In His Image; I Celebrate The Lives Of My Brothers, As I Also Celebrate The Invaluable Lessons, That They Each Taught Me, Through The Way They Lived, And Continue To Live On, In The Spiritual.

    “Life Don’t Always Come Full Circle, I Can’t Explain, God/
    Teacher To Student/
    The Overlap, And The Generational Gap I'm Seeing Is Prudent/
    So When I Speak Of Pursuing/
    What We Deemed As Mere Dreams And Illusions/
    Albeit A Nuisance/
    I'm Brewing From Eyes That Have Seen Through It/
    It's No Time For Even A Body, To Be Reclusive/
    Execs'll Feed You Excuses, And If It’s Seasoned, You Chew It/
    We Got Old Ideologies, I Think We Should Renew It/
    The Psychology, For Some Of That Reasoning’s Even Stupid/
    For Me It’s Deeper Than Music, Much Deeper Than Music/
    They Stole Our Musical Freedom, Up Next It’s Freedom Of Music/“

    And So, We Pick Up The Cause, And We Move!

    Always, And Forever.
