This is Nose!!!! Taking over the area code.
Wise: Ma man take us through Nose. Who is he
and what is he about?
Nose: Well in simple Nose is a born again
Christian, producer, certified sound engineer, rapper, graphics designer and a
simple dude from BGF in a small village called Bothshoek...you dig so yeah that’s
me
Wise: I see you got those Bothashoek manners.
So what inspired you to venture into music?
Nose: Well I got the sting of music from an
early age you know my family were a family of music you know but as for Hip Hop
it’s my brother and my cousin they always had a swag I looked up to him know
from good kwaito music, but I got stuck with Hip Hop and not your so commercial
stuff they got me into stuff I didn’t even get but it was dope and I liked it, cassette
era hard-core so i had stacks that I jacked from them and i loved even other
genres that I imitated a lot of RnB acts lol(I sold out for a second) but man that’s
how i got here and thanks to my big bro and my cousin TQ they influenced me a
lot
Wise: Ha ha ha damn they shouldn't have
corrupted your mind with this hip hop thingy. So who did you grow up listening
to specifically?
Nose: Nas, that’s my man this guy rhymes
words that you never thought they would rhyme and his patterns are sick I mean
Illmatic is still an Album that nobody can’t touch its standard today I mean
after 21 years it’s still regarded as dope....it tells you he's a legend and
makes timeless music. And to think he was 17-19 years old when he wrote that
stuff whaaaat?
Wise: Ha ha ha ha Ok enough with hero
worshiping. Looking at the standard of BGF Hip hop! What is your general take?
Nose: Well its coming ayt you know and
growing, because you get to see the amount of talent that is here, I don’t know
if it’s because I am friendly I just turn to meet people that got talent and
they just halla at me you know but one issue I got BGF rappers sometimes is EGO
man I mean we got potential to make something happen only if we lay aside EGO
and favouritism and just all combine and make a massive thing that the industry
never experience just imagine if you gathered all the artist and we work on a
huge mixtape just like soul candi about 40-50 tracks and put it out do a
hashtag and invade the whole thing to a point people say BGF niggas are crazy
and when you say you are from BGF there is already a standard they regard us
by.....just imagine with me on this one..
Wise: Great idea man. Damn Kats gotta sit on
this one. So basically what you saying is that we should seek undeniable
exposure aggressively So?
Nose: Yeah now you tell who else ever did
this that the whole town/city did this, I mean let’s just die once you know
people who got studios open them up, people who do artwork open up, people who
do videos open up, for free and let us all just go in once and the whoever
shines but we shine as a unit 1st because some cats are gonna shine just
imagine if we went to the municipality with a mixtape that’s literally 5 disc
and we say we want to invade the whole Limpopo with a tour that’s like a 5 hour
show you can’t tell me they'll ignore us take discs and hand to take drivers,
print out links and paste them all over S.A wherever you are studying come with
a hashtag on top of that that every artist push...whaaaat ? But you know EGO
might come in someone be like Nose be acting all smart and all that, I am sure
someone thought this it’s not me it’s about BGF
Wise: Yeah let's hope it'll be an idea we pay
attention to. Now what is the top 5 in your playlist?
Nose: Well right now i am jamming
3MUSK3RT33RS, Fobagona, Mampara's music, Bothashoek Manners 2.0 can’t stop
jamming to this and a dude called KayeGee i hear he is around BGF I wanna work
with this dude
Wise: Ha ha ha ha you need to Halla at him.
You dropped a mix tape few days ago. Tell us about it?
Nose: Man I should've dropped this mixtape in
2013 so the tracks were recorded 2012-2013 except for 2 songs I did last year
but the mixtape is all about me and my living principles, so it’s entirely all
about me and God and my perspectives as a rapper and a dude from Bothashoek, so
yeah as much as i have grown from 2013 to now that’s my baby right there i love
it and i play it a lot to help myself to keep moving in life you dig, and never
compromise my principles with God and His Son Jesus you know
Wise: Who did you work with?
Nose: I worked with my homie E-Level(talented
dude right here) nah he's my brother not a homie, worked with Choaxito (dope)
and with Pastor Cross(ma man that’s my expression of him) they all my brothers
and then I worked with some ladies... I worked with Carla(Fanisa) and Vanessa
and oohh yeah I worked with Bayers(Pastor Weed) talented dude right there
Wise: Who is the illest rapper you know in
BGF and why is he in your good books?
Nose: Well it’s impossible to name one and so
by saying that I ma say UNO fam (Turm, Prism, Taydos, BluBox, AbN, Sputla,
Duke) because of their work ethic you know they put in effort and also in
growth man this guys you stay away from them for 2 weeks and you come listen to
their new stuff it seems like different cats you left
Wise: I'm not buying it. You know in your
heart you have that one dude you be like Damn he just kill everything he touch.
But I ma let you off the hook. Now there must be that ninja/ninjas you think
should up their game or just drop the Mic. Drop them
Nose: Lol eish that question lol well I view
it this way I can say a track wack not an artist is wack because even the
wackest artist can surprise you on other tracks because I’d also take it if
someone says my tracks is wack and say I am dope but they ain’t feeling that
track I did its better so I ma mention tracks, Cru is back that’s a wack track,
Twerk that’s a wack track, A mans Dilemma that track is wack and other tracks I
deleted from my phone so i might not remember them
Wise: Ha ha ha ha ha ma man I hear you. What
do you think about beef, is it good or bad for Hip hop?
Nose: Well it’s bad and good.... It’s bad when
it becomes an altercation issue or when all you is just beef with everyone I
mean look at Canibus, but it is super healthy for the Hip Hop culture I mean emcees
be saying they are best, so in a beef that statement is being challenged and be
like lets go headlock and do this one on one now and that’s when we focus on 2
artists and see the warrior skills and how they use words to launch an attack
and we see the creativity of an artist and their research on the other artist
Wise: Ether or hit em up?
Nose: Eish nooooo that’s an unfair question
eish and I have answer it mmmhhhh damn I hate this question but I ma say Ether
man its Nas . Plus it became a word rappers say when they say they gonna destroy
an artist
Wise: Ha ha ha ha you tryna play smart.
Anything else you wanna share with us?
Nose: Well I am working Taydos, BluBox on a
mixtape we called our thing 3MUSK3RT33RS and I ma be working with Taydos on a
collab joint in which I did beats for it, and then I am working with Rems,
Mampara and Tebatso on something because an opportunity presented itself and
then I ma do my EP so look out for that and yeah let’s keep pushing BGF you by
the famous word #Fobagona lol and cats lets work together do dope stuff I’d
love that
Wise: Ma man. We can go on and on but the
page is not enough Lol. Thank you for your time, we appreciate and celebrate
your life. God bless
Nose: Well thank you Wise for your time well
this was dope and thanks for such a platform it is great and hope to reaches
