Nez Long, who is riding high on his recent successes following the release of his Pay Slow EP has been enjoying some well deserved fame lately. Hits such as Palangasheti, Van Damme, Keka and Balance are some of the songs that have cemented his place on the Zambian music scene.

Bobby East on the other hand has also made quite a name for himself, especially with the way he has managed to still remain relevant even after transitioning and taking a slight different dimension from the Bobby East of ten years ago. Unlike his old self, Bobby East’s recent songs are softer melody as he tries to fuse rap and singing in them.

His recent releases, Toxic which features Kantu and also All Over which features talented X.Y.Z signee Jorzi have all been receiving massive airplay.

Slapdee on the other hand is often regarded as being one of the pioneers of Zambian hi-hop having won multiple awards since his debut in 2006.

His musical career began in 2006 when he released ‘Asembe Isebenza’. After a while it got identified by promoter Sync and got the needed buzz for a rising star. Released a debut album ‘Asembe Isebenza’ and gained Slapdee a decent radio hype and generated a buzz in the hip-hop underground.

Although his debut album wasn’t a success, Slapdee released a second album So Che, launching him into a household name, with the hit songs Solola and Takwaba. The album catapulted the young rhymesmith to national stardom and confirmed what well-informed critics had suspected; The next big thing had arrived!
