| Video Discription | Tuks, born Tumelo Kapadisa has been writing in his indigenous language since 1993/94, back when rap was still considered taboo in most townships around South Africa. Tuks began as a "conscious" writer touching base with everyday issues and drawing from his environment which back then was strong in cultural influence and pride that was prevalent in Bophuthatswana, a year later the homeland was re-established as the north west and became part of the nine provinces in South Africa. Prior to his solo career he was in two other groups that he co-founded with friends from school, but as he puts it, "i felt choked and honestly i was more in love with my music while the other members hallucinated about the fame and fortune, i had to be out, besides i had always been a loner!". Tuks isnt big on running his mouth on some..."i started vanac", in fact his sole purpose is to do music and interpret life as he sees it, an honest lyricist whom in abstract will recite you his life story in each of his songs. Tuks is described the man with mad attitude, issues and he holds back no punches, the very same thing that got him in hot waters when a line from sneng-neng about another famous rapper caught the public ear. Raw from the streets, two years later after having his first break on Zola's album on a track entitled Moroba he still spits like he got a point to prove. Tuks was also featured in hit albums Bravo's Skhokho and Morafe's Maru a pula. Tuks shared the stage with already established artists in this country like Zola, Pith Black Afro, Bravo, k.b, Thebe, hhp and Amu. He draws his inspiration from acts like Common, KRS, Mos Def and most underground (rather undiscoverd) hip hop. He writes like none other in S.A. He is considered one of South Africa's best lyricist with both vanac and english appeal. Tuks debut album consists of 20 tracks and is a journey through the ups and downs he has come across in his life. He has worked with wonder producer Thaso on the album. The production of Mafoko a me comes off sounding heart felt and true to its own art form, out of the box and an alternative to your regular and monotonous sounding hip hop that we have been hearing throughout the years.
