THE KASI FRIENDLY GHOST. I wasn't a fan

So I got through Cassper's album, Thuto. And while I am a strong Aka fan, I feel like every aka fan is sleeping on the kasi friendly ghost. Period.

I mean I don't feel like there are any classics in this album, or songs with Phumakim weight, Doc shebeleza, Mama I Made It, but I've only listened to it once and I came in on sleep mode on Cassper.

I'm sure you've picked up on a glaring fact, I only know radio circulating Cassper tracks and features. But I figured that qualified me to write this post. Granted I'll have to have a proper sit down with the Tsholofelo album today.

I loved Cassper's verse on that Khuli track and he didn't let the Khuli wave drag him under. He was surfing that shit. And that feature is a major door open to Aka friendly rappers, that the friendly ghost was previously shunned thanks to the "beef"?. Hopefully more collaborations will come through.

Anyway, this album. I don't feel like I can review it. I'm not qualified and the only word that comes to me about this album is nostalgic freshness. Although it may be Nostalgic, a banger is necessary for an album, and Nyuku couldn't be a great fit.
It is however like I said...I need to sit down with Nyovest's body of work, including the multiple radio appearances, performances and awards, local and abroad.
But I will say this, Cassper the Kasi Ghost should drop my music like Nyuku.
Good Gawd!
Ikay'inyuku?!
