The 013 Hip Hop got in touch with Rapaddict
SkillZ, the man popularly known for his song Taking Shots (diss song to Cru
Mayor). I arranged an interview with him and this is how it went.
Jo Wise: Halla SkillZ you good?
SkillZ: Yeah I'm fresh homie, thanks for
the opportunity, I'm blessed.
JW: I should be thanking you for giving
me your time homie. You got into my legendary books after (taking shots) we'll
get to that later. Now who is Skillz and where is he from?

| Breathing Music |
SK: SkillZ real name Lottie Sekhukhune
is a rapper just trying to build and expand the name. Born and raised in
Lecowza, shout out to the kasi, spend my primary years in a school called Lord
Milner where my homie Tebza gave me the name SkillZ.
JW: Lebowakgomo hey? And how did you end
in BGF. And what pushed Tebza to come up with the name Skillz?
SK: It was boarding school, so Tebza,
this one girl, Khosi and I shared the love of Hip Hop. Passed time by rap music
and sharing lines. I remember at the end of one of my verse, homie Tebza said
boy u got 'Skillz', so I let the name be. After primary I moved to BGF to go to
high school in St Thomas.
JW: Interesting and how old were you
when you got stung by a Hip Hop bug?
SK: I got stung when I was 12 years old
JW: What inspires you as an artist and
who did you grow up listening to?
SK: I try to learn as much as I can from
everyone I converse with, so that comes as
inspiration. I grew up listening to
Slim Shady, Kanye West with albums like College Dropout, Late Registration,
Graduation, Jay-Z BLACK ALBUM, Ab Soul LONGTERM series, SlaughterHouse, Nas
Illmatic, Wiz... The list won't stop

| On the Mic |
JW: Interesting list. I believe your
fans right now would love to hear more about Taking Shots (diss song to Cru
mayor). What provoked the beef?
SK: This Is HIP HOP, fans are entitled
to their own opinion, but when rapper to another when you say some shit, you
need to back it up! Marvel hit me up for a feature I couldn't decline on Party
Pooper, some people made their comments but cru's caught my attention talking
about ' he come in whack every time' so as one rapper to another I took as a
declaration of warfare, so I loaded my ammo.
JW: Ha ha ha and you did take shots and
it took BGF Hip Hop cycle with a storm. Do you think Cru is a coward for always
playing hide and seek when he has to stand up for beef?
SK: It aint a diss but it’s a fact that
nigga coward, but I don't want to run my mouth maybe he planning some Al Qaeda
shit, to drop bombs soon.

| For the love of music |
JW: Let's hope he does that for the sake
of Hip hop. So you still think he should come face to face with you, one stage
one Mic?
SK: For sure, HIP HOP CARES event, if
the people are down for it...?
JW: That's the spirit man. Now without
fear or favour which BGF Mc do you think is on point /illest and who do you
consider whack?
SK: I favour every rapper, individuals
bring different sets of qualities to the game and fill the void, the illlest
will have to be Taydos the RocKing Emcee without second guessing, shout to
A-League look out for the EP, and nigga is just that good.
JW: Ok fair enough. I guess we not gonna
hear Skillz labelling any rapper whack anytime soon. But I'm sure he'll murder
any rapper coming for him?
SK: No doubt homie, I'll murder anyone
in my way
JW: What is Skillz busy with currently,
any new singles?
SK: I got a new single coming out next
week called 'Nuthin' But Net', real bumpy ish, and one for potheads who enjoy
trippy music, its titled 'S.D.A' Sex, Drugs and Alcohol featuring Abstract
Narcortic, but does not have a date, coming soon though. Yeah look out for
those
JW: We'll be on the lookout. Man we can
go on and on. Is there anything your fans need to know about Skillz?
SK: Life is 10% of what happens to you
and 90% of how you react to it.....Love
JW: Thanks for your time man. Keep
bursting those rhymes.
SK: That's wassup! Thanks a lot for
having me man, BGF HIP HOP GROW! Shout 013 Hip Hop
