The Afrikan Hip Hop Caravan Concert in Makhaza

It’s still hip – to the hop – hip hop – it don’t stop! The Soundz of the South (SOS) Non-Profit Organisation had organised the first concert of Afrikan Hip Hop Caravan tour 2014 - and they hosted it at Makhaza Wetland Park on Saturday (the 8th of November 2014). The concert was heralded by the Afrikan Hip Hop Conference - which they hosted at Hubspace in Harare, Khayelitsha - on Friday (the 7th of November 2014). 

They invited couple of underground music sessions such as 7750, Top Deck, Heads ‘n Raps, Gumba Entertainment, Pass the Mic and EloHIP. Each session was scheduled to have a one hour cypher. There were couple of artists that were invited to perform. The concert was schedule to commence at 12:00 PM; but it delayed for over two hours. 

It started with the open mic cypher by various artists; then the concert commenced officially with the opening by EloHIP. The line-up consisted of Tate, Dimitri, Dirty Twins, Freedom Warriors, Heads ‘n Raps, Pharmacist, Ground Floor, Top Deck, Gumba Entertainment, Inkanyamba and others. There were many artists on the concert and some of them could not perform due to time constraints – the concert dragged on until the evening.
