THE ‘KAAPSE’ KINGDOM

Terror MC says KINGDOM COME as an album is in a league of its own. The nine-track album will soon be available on all digital platforms.

The ‘Is Jy Ready’ launch is taking place at Downtime Lounge (49 Socony Road, Elsies River Industrial). You can expect a stellar event lineup, including DJs such as RealROZZANO and Tekneek, as well as artists, C.R.E.A.M Machine, Rosey The Rapper, K-Nine Die Hond, etc.

TERROR MC & HIS ‘BACKTRACK’

Born in Kraaifontein, Cape Town in South Africa. The birth of Terror MC in 1985 was during a period of political turmoil. Before he found his calling as a ‘machine gun motor mouth’, Terror MC had to face various challenges first.
He experienced death and rebirth after a tragic accident that left him with severe swelling in his cranial area and an imbalance on the left-hand side of his body. Following the accident, Terror MC frequented juvenile detention centers and had a brief stint in Pollsmoor Prison. Fortunately, he was found innocent of all charges. This was all before the age of 17. Terror MC’s hunger for knowledge, a keen sense for reading people and executing them with a sharp tongue, as well as a burning passion for Hip-Hop was his survival kit.

MARKING HIS NAME

By 2004, Terror MC regained his alter ego, thanks to a classic track called ‘Kaapse Vlakte’, and continues to climb up the food chain.
With just a backpack and a few instrumental beats from the producer, HIPE, Terror MC threw himself into the deep end of the music industry. He made sure that he was seen on every stage in every club and his music was consistently heard on every campus radio stations (including one in Canada) and community radio stations. From collaborating with an Angolan DJ and producer, DJ Cavera, to playing an important role in elevating the ‘rymklets’ phenomenon with an Afrikaans supergroup called RAPBELS, to landing a spot on UK Producer, D Planet’s mixtape featuring heavy hitters like Ben Sharpa, Driemanskap and more,
Terror MC also found himself featured in South Africa’s top Hip Hop magazine, HYPE, and so many more rising opportunities.
