Nasty C Shares New Song ‘There They Go’ As He Signs Deal With Def Jam Recordings

Young South African rapper Nasty C has signed an exclusive pact with Def Jam Recordings. Announced by Billboard, this is through a joint venture with Universal Music Africa. The “Hell Naw” artiste made his official U.S. debut when “There They Go,” his latest song premiered on Apple Music Beats 1 with Ebro Darden on March 26. A video was also released.

Filmed in Nasty C’s Durban hometown, the visuals of “There They Go,” sees the 23 year-old rapper cast in the light of the kid who’s made it, and he eagerly sells this further with lyrics which spell out his hard work and success. Produced by Cxdy, it’s been said that “There They Go” will feature on Nasty’s forthcoming album, Zulu Man With Some Power, which will be the rapper’s third, after Bad Hair (2016) and Strings and Blings (2018).

“There They Go,” therefore, becomes the first act of a new chapter for Nasty, who’s seen his stock rise globally after impressing a bunch of influencers, from Sway Calloway (remember that freestyle?) to French Montana and making music with them.

Born Nsikayesizwe David Junior Ngcobo, the rapper has also been the number one most-streamed South African artiste on Apple Music for four years consecutively. Thus, it’s only natural such a global powerhouse would want to ally with a man of his talents. Announcing the signing, Def Jam Recordings interim chairman/CEO Jeff Harleston said that “Nasty C is a unique and forward-thinking artist who is at the forefront of a new generation of rappers emerging from Africa. Def Jam is a globally recognized brand synonymous with excellence in hip-hop, and we are excited to welcome Nasty C — an international star with real vision and talent — into the family.”

Also speaking, the artist said: “It’s powerful to be a part of the Def Jam family. It’s an iconic record label and has made the careers of many of the artists I look up to.”

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism. To distinguish this type of poetry we have to refer back to the concept of appropriation we introduced earlier. At the simplest and basic level, the cultural mandate of possessing a people’s piece of the earth involves a mental and emotional homecoming within the physical environment. Poems like Brew’s ‘‘Dry season”, Okara’s “Call of the River Nun”, Nicol’s “The meaning of Africa” and Soyinka’s “Season”, to give a few examples,

The pioneering phase of African Poetry

The pioneering phase We have called the first phase that of the pioneers. But since the phrase “pioneer poets” has often been used of writers of English expression like Osadebay, Casely-Hayford and Dei-Anag, we should point out that our “pioneer phase” also includes Negritude poets of French expression. The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
