THE SECRET MEANING OF "Siz to knees the disease" A THREAD #dyantalk
The year is 1994, the year that the majority of the country finally had a voice, be it via a ballot or in recording studios. With the latter many of these small, independent labels would come to the rescue of many seeking to express themselves #dyantalk
One such label that was providing this outlet was Kalawa Jazmee. It was in this year that they had a breakthrough with Boom Shaka, with the appropriately titled "It& #39;s about time". It is in this song that we first received the first cryptic message in Post Apartheird SA #dyantalk
Lebo Mathosa (not Thembi Seete as some believe), in an attempt to rap, drops the most mysterious line in SA rap history. It had been an unknown cryptic message for almost 26 years. Until in the wee hours of Thursday morning... #dyantalk
Rapper and autotune engineer AKA was having the time of his life poking and taunting Sizwe Dlomo, a respected media personality. #dyantalk
Siz, as he is affectionally known, was infamously brought down to his knees during the lockdown, whilst we are currently facing a disease. "Siz to knees the disease" indeed #dyantalk
In conclusion, Lebo Mathosa was not rapping gibberish, instead she was warning us of future events that will happen on Black Twitter. #dyantalk
THE END, join me next week as I analyse another mystery in popular culture on #dyantall
