On Wednesday we did an interview on Dutch national radio station FunX. The African Hip Hop Show is hosted by J4, GMB and DJ 360, so big ups to them for putting us on.
It's amazing that national radio in Holland has an entire show dedicated to African Hip Hop, and we don't in South Africa. Go figure.
We'll be posting a link to the mp3 of the interview as soon as it goes live. In the mean time check out some photos...

Last week Rattex did an editorial photo shoot for Obrigado, the magazine of our favourite coffee shop, Vida e Caffe.
Obrigado's editorial and creative director, Georgia Gardner, told us that the theme of the shoot was 'animals'. We arrived on location (the boxing gym on Harrington Street) and Rattex was immediately interviewed by Miles Keylock. The stylists then got to work on Rah, dressing him as a couture kung-fu rat. It was crazy, but Rah pulled it off with his usually kasi swag.
We're big fans of Obrigado magazine, the quality of the photography and overall creativity is high grade. You can check out the Rattex editorial in the April edition of Obrigado, available at all Vida e Caffes.

Our very own Ben Sharpa was interviewed by Rob Boffard in the number 1 newspaper for South Africans living abroad, The South African.
Luckily for you, they have an online version so you can check out the piece. Some of you may know Rob Boffard aka Rob_one from his regular contributions to Africa's Gateway.
