When announcing the news and project, artist manager and stable owner Melusi ‘Zox’ Dlamini said this project will be the first of its kind, as 10 artists alongside four producers, a photographer, a graphic designer, and a videographer will all be in the same location in a camp-type setup to create this masterpiece.

“The recording process will be an immersive experience, with all participants living and working in the same space. The Mayham EP Vol.1 promises to be a showcase of Eswatini’s finest hip-hop talent, with each artist bringing their unique style and flow to the table,” said the former SWAMA president.

In addition he said the project aims to highlight the diversity and creativity of the country’s music scene, while also pushing boundaries and breaking new ground.

“We are incredibly excited to be working on this project, said one of the producers involved. The talent here in Eswatini is truly world-class, and we are confident that this EP will put us on the map in a big way. We are breaking new ground with this project, and we cannot wait to see how it is received,” he said.

The Mayham EP Vol.1  is set to be released later this year and will be available on all major streaming platforms.

It would seem Hip Hop In the country is finally receiving the attention it needs as last week this publication, ran an article on the return of the genre’s Festival ‘Spirit of Hip Hop’. SOFRESH in conjunction with KrTC of Hip Hop and Kingdom XLR is set to host the most authentic Hip Hop show to ever grace the Kingdom of Eswatini.
