“Intentions is a way of mixing hip hop, Kwaito, RnB ... it's evolving Afro people. The people that can evolve a sound are the ones that created it. I made the beat last year in December and I thought about giving it to him right after I made it. So in April-May when he started popping as Blxckie I approached the boy and I told him it's either I give him a hip hop beat or I just throw him in my world. I had to get it right, I could have dropped it earlier but I think timing is everything.
“It's really a thing of relevance and what's trending right now ... there's no need for division ... people are rap singing ... we don't need to point fingers but just make it work. Hip hop is borrowed ... music evolves over time and people need to accept that. Finally we have found a way to communicate with hip hop.”
