There is a drill movement bubbling under the surface of Cape Town’s music industry and fronting the lines as the next best thing in the new subgenre is Shxngie.
There’s a new challenger in SA’s drill scene
The Delft native is riding a wave that rivals the very best in South Africa’s drill music, a brand new Trap-subgenre with origins in the United Kingdom.
Pop Smoke’s shortlived ascension, in a way, created the path for the likes of Tweezy and Cassper Nyovest to take drill and give it that African twist.
While songs like Amademoni and Nokuthula are palatable to the mainstream, it takes a bit of understanding of Cape Town’s unique urban culture to truly appreciate the slappers found in Shnxgie and Prince SA’s Underrated project.
