about

Anonymou$ RAP$ (2003 - ) Tshepo Mkhwanazi is a South African artist, producer and founder of Noewanstudios. He had lived in a small town just in between Johannesburg and the Free State called Vereeniging. There, he lived with his mother and father who were both bookkeeping graduates. He and his mother moved out from Vereeniging later when his father died during the festive season. They relocated back to Johannesburg where then he lived with his uncles, aunts and his mother. That's the epicenter for his love for music. Although no local artist that resided in the same area inspired him (simply because an introvert like him would know so much about his own neighborhood) it's where he experienced the wonders of cable TV. Now exposed to music channels 24/7, it was natural that the fondness for music would eventually start growing. His early influences in music began in the Young Money Cash Money era. This was when the Hip-Hop scene was just transitioning from boom bap to trap music and contemporary rap. He was heavily influenced by the likes of Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj, Drake, Lupe Fiasco, etc. Young of age and no clue whatsoever about the rap industry, RAP$ just listened to the music hoping someone could explain how it was created. As a kid, RAP$ was keen on finding out how music was created, rather than how people listened to it. in August of 2012, RAP$'s mother died of breast cancer and RAP$ was forced to move away from the little suburban town of Malvern to the streets of Tem
