South African rapper, Peak does it with Malawian based artists


 



Music as you know is something inborn, its something so original and it helps you connect with all kinds of people. You can get recognized from every corner of the world with just one hit, provided you meet peoples minds. A South African rapper by the name Peak is one of the witnesses of this fact.

Peak born as Zwelisha Nicephorus Mkhize on 15th May 1994 in South Africa ,Kwazulu Natal,Durban(Hammarsdale) came out to love music way back since he was little. Watching his folks (Michael Mbili & Constance Zenzile Mkhize) doing what they knew best was so amazing to him that he got interested in pursuing his musical dreams. He started by forming a clique with his friends known as Love&Peace which had a bunch of dancers and singers.

Years later Peak lost his folks and this was a very painful moment for him, the pain he felt was much bigger than he could handle. To ease the pain he started to write all sorts of things like poetry just to get his mind to a peaceful world. The writing got better till he started to perform some of his works at BAT Center in Durban.

With the same writing he started to try and rhyme on hiphop beats which led him to developing this undying love for hiphop culture.As time went on his career seemed to be going in the right direction landing him on the release of his 2009 2nd Round Mixtape under Young Life Entertainment.

In 2014 he started Listeners Digest E.P under Music Lap Entertainment which ofcourse is on hold up to now and he is hoping to release it in the near future.  In the same year he got signed to Groundflow Entertainment where he is now working on his new highly anticipated Mixtape with biggest names like Firegn Exchange, Petestrumentals, Jahlil, Araab music and many more.

Peak has recently accomplished one of his dreams, working with artists from across Africa that is. He with the help of his record label Groundflow Entertainment got in touch with Malawian rapper Tha Cliffdaddy and came up with a track tittled ghetto life. The Track which features four Malawian artists (Cliffdaddy, Fireman, Ts Tobias and Ken) and Peak(RSA) himself is one track you would love to listen to over and over again.

We see Peak in this track doing what he knows best and you can tell by his lines how excited he is working with artists he`s never known his entire life. Artists from another country but yet bringing out something wonderful, to him thats the true spirit of being an artist. He believes that through the power of music one can cross borders and do the undo-able.

Asked on how his fans welcomed the development, Peak said he would rather call them his family than fans. He appreciate the support that they give him so calling them fans would be a very nasty way of disrespecting them. This young rapper made it clear that everyone in his circles welcomed the project with an outstanding support and he`s way too grateful for that.

     "Without my family am nothing, you know these guys give me the much needed support every artist needs. I thought its wise not to call them my fans, thats being disrespectful. I mean with all all that they do for me and my career why on earth should i call them my fans? They deserve much better than that..... I love them man" he said

    "As far as my love for them is concerned, i promise i will surely give them what they need either as an artist or as a deejay on any gig. They should expect the very best from me. Like soon enough after offically releasing this ghetto life track with my Malawian friends, my loved fam should expect its video coming up" he added.

He gives credit to his manager Sbu "Mabuza-Kick" and his producer Dazsolja for connecting him to Malawian artist Cliffdaddy and recommending him to work with Malawians on their upcoming cross country mixtape which will be one of its kind as he puts it down.
