INSPIRATION: Numb3rs & Alphab3ts

Posted by Trompie


INSPIRATION: A TRUE FORCE IN HIPHOP TO BE REKONED WITH

Inspiration is a collective of like-minded individuals who came together due to their common love for the art of hiphop. Moeti Damane known as San The Instromonumentalist is a multitalented and a multifaceted producer/mc who has been in the industry close on 10 years honing his skills in his home country of Lesotho. He came to South Africa to further his studies in economics and is currently doing his masters at Rhodes University in Grahamstown, South Africa. It is here that he met like-minded individuals who excel and thrive on the beautiful art that is known as hiphop. It is through this love that he met his fellow partner in beat making Mark Sunners also known as Alias.

Mark has lived, schooled and worked in Grahamstown for the passed 14 years. Collectively they have produced an instrumental hiphop album called “Inspiration: Pieces of our broken mind” which received rave reviews and has garnered the collective a large following worldwide, and 2 mixtapes that go by the name Reinvention which garnered the talents of producers and mc’s locally and from all over the world which have also earned them an even larger following. San and Alias have created many soundscapes for artists covering 4 countries in Africa and 3 continents. This just proves that music and specifically hiphop is indeed a universal language.
Currently Inspiration is working on their much anticipated following to their very well received first offering. Their new project which is called “Inspiration: Numb3rs & Alphabets” is a new take on what an instrumental hiphop album should be, but you’ll have to get the album to experience its magic. Another multitalented local mc/producer known as Self from Krusch Enterprises has lent his unending talents and is executive producing the current project. Another genius mc/producer that is lending his well of talent and experience is the well-known Lesotho powerhouse known to the masses as Anonymous, representing Dimlite Productions. Well renowned mc/producer Lil’ Vic and producer Velotz from Orena Records in the USA have also contributed to this monumental project. With this team of extremely talented and passionate individuals, Inspiration’s current and future projects are set and bound to be classics.
