[@POPcast4real]

The Clout (internet) is only relevant in Joburg, you get bookings in joburg because of your clout, in other places, internet rappers dont have a major following, who listens to J Molley in Eastern cape? PatrikxxxLee in Limpopo?

[@owenmokgalutsi]

We listen to PatrickxxLee in Limpopo we listen to J Molley .. how do you think we even view this podcast?? It's 2019 we got WiFi even in the bundus

[@owenmokgalutsi]

We had J Molley in lebowakgomo a few months back. He's an internet rapper.

I receive, I respect and I support. This has taught me a lot. I am a nobody at the moment but I am trying my best to spread my work and answer whenever am called. I currently live in China so my reach is limited, but these are all key points to learn from. Thank you

[@samshongwe]

The podcast market in South Africa is largely untapped. Between this and a few others, hopefully niche markets will be satisfied. Otherwise, fans will preemptively curate content to their own tastes. If anything, with the demographics of South Africa (majority youth population) and sliding decrease in barriers of entry and participation (data prices, fiber et al.) the market should greatly expand. Conclusion: if anyone is thinking of getting into KZbin, Podcasting etc. this is the time.

[@POPcast4real]

100%!!

[@exploringafrica2496]

Slikour was supposed to be part of the popcast

[@DJVigilanteSA]

HHP maniac voetsek no sir... this is our Popcast including you

[@Mzwambedu]

why??? he has got his own platform, which actually is a pioneer in SA. Popcast is different but nobody is an authority on SA Hip Hop, especially new age cats like Slikour's platform

[@TheHiiighlands]

So much insight from this video. learnt a lot as an upcoming rapper.

[@bleendlovu2893]

This is literally the best show currently, love this bluh

“They play me on radio even tho I can do better without ” - Reece

[@kgotegotraders]

Theo Manjo this a lie

[@TheAlfaKat]

Wow okay, firstly I’ve got sooo much respect for these 4 people here, and I won’t lie I’ve had my share of failed submissions and losing faith in the system.. what I have learnt from this is to not take rejection personally. I can’t be focusing on the past when I got new innovative South African influenced Motswako music in the chamber and think it won’t get played.. I WILL BE PERSISTENT, I WILL KEEP SUBMITTING.. Kame.. everyday even.. thanks for this episode

[@POPcast4real]

Yo Alfa, wassup, always submit to any avenue, big or small, drop bodies of work, music videos, gain traction and the right people will hear your music and put you on, dope music catches fire faster

[@trophiespodcast2537]

Alright here's my thing.Everyone has a right to self determine and if because of your experience you become aware of a potential unwanted situation and decide to point it out, you have to do so with respect for the person you're pointing it out to.Them being "kids" and inexperienced doesn't justify your disrespect.Firstly who's the "Pretoria crew"?Secondly are you honestly not aware of the disrespect in that?With that being said thank you Speedsta.

[@POPcast4real]

Respect goes a long way, these up coming kids stay upcoming because they feel that the internet gives them this sense of "i've made it" which makes them not respect people

[@trophiespodcast2537]

[@rizladareason1361]

but give Reece some credit for standing his ground. He aspires independence and he's doing good if you ask me. Dont just throw shots. He even predicted Emtees debacle with the label, you just commented about it on hindsight.

[@shabbanine5926]

Rizla Da Reason bruh no one is discrediting Reece they just telling the truth.TWC is holding Reece back and management sucks that's why Flame left. I hope Reece will realise that and get his shit together.Truth be told Reece got bars but if a nigga don't change his attitude I swear he gon become the underground rapper on the surface.🤞

If you're going to be independent, have a strong management team who will make your brand grow

@Noni looking ✈ also I agree with following protocol for sampling radio and TV. I think there's been so much backlash on these mediums not to mention the clutter of "internet buzz" tutorials, I'd like for you guys to expand on sampling these mediums pls. @vigi congrats on the major label thing bro I know how BIG that is for you as an independent.

[@justkholii_4296]

smoko, up coming artists have a lot to say and they don't know how to go about expressing themselves and finding out the info. like demanding to be put on or to be playlisted on radio but a person doesn't even read the TCs of what format you should send work in, who you should be registered with and codes you should accompany your submissions with and no cussing for example.. instead folks would rather argue all day back and forth...

[@YoYoYo-dq7yx]

This is very one sided, the reason new school rappers don’t want other avenues is that there are gatekeepers when it comes to radio and record labels so the internet market is way easier to tap into, and the internet is worldwide not only in Johannesburg, this show if very one sided because you’re all established artists and there’s no journalist to call out the bullsh*t you’re all saying like the show Everyday Struggle

[@POPcast4real]

Yes there are gatekeepers, no lie, the internet has opened an avenue for you to get noticed, but that doesnt mean you dont have to network
