The Hood Chronicles: Gugulethu Edition

Picture pinched from Pioneer Unit


Finally! The new Driemanskap video featuring Macho and Kanyi just dropped. It’s called S’phum’eGugs which means "We’re from Gugs." Hood anthems have been neglected somewhat in hip hop but this right here just changed all of that. Planet Earth produced the song and all the lyricists came to the party, did they not? Check it out:



theblagg loves, loves, loves this video. We particularly like the last train scenes with everyone bossing up and, our favourite part: the cue cards for the viewers. Pioneer Unit – which is the Cape Town-based label that Driemanskap is signed to - has done it again. The Unit has the likes of Ben Sharpa and Rattex on their roster so you already know what kind of work they’ve been putting in. S’phum’eGugs is the second video from Driemanskap’s album, Ingqabhukil’ Inyongo, and it was directed by the four man army as well as Anton Visser. You cannot help but like these dudes. And if you don’t then they have one line for you: “iDriemanskap kau, word of advice, don’t test now.”
