The Cassper Nyovest Episode
*To the tune of the Spongebob Squarepants Theme Song*
Who lives in poverty and misery?
2 BROKE TWIMBOS!
Who interviewed SA's hottest MC?
2 BROKE TWIMBOS! (REPEAT)
That's right, Dan & Phil decided to award the privilege of being a guest on the podcast to arguably South Africa's hottest rapper in 2014, none other than Cassper Nyovest.
Fresh from a dream year in which the release of his debut album Tsholofelo exceeded all expectations and has now all but achieved platinum status, Cassper brought the magic to Zimbabwe for his first live show in the country. Never ones to miss an opportunity to beg for money from a millionaire, the 2 Broke Twimbos forcibly hijacked the self-styled "New Age Doc Shebeleza" and from there, the interview below.
Follow along as Dan & Phil first review the show that was held at Club 1 + 1 (Happy), not a joke, then listen as Cassper Nyovest (real name Refiloe Maele Phoolo) shares his journey starting with nothing but "a rand and a dream". Dan also gets tips on how to get Boity and Cassper shares his music plans for the near future. We were hoping to get a chance to speak to Carpo to discuss his new song but he was nowhere to be seen.
We end off with the latest track Cassper is promoting, Special Somebody by DJ Speedsta ft. Cassper Nyovest, Ricky Rick & Anatii. Enjoy.
For those of you who did not notice we also have video of this episode above. If you have the data bundles to spare watch the video to see Cassper,Dan & Phil in all their HD glory.
The end of another week means the end of all your problems! For now, at least, so we celebrate with a brand new episode of the only podcast to be 100% tariff-free in all countries! Dan & Phil talk YN’s, Zim Hip-Hop and Zimdancehall in the context of international exposure and collaborations, conspiracy theories about tariffs and all-female space crews, and even get some time in for full-on nerdy chats about Direwolves and Marvel. Enjoy!
