NDLULAMTHI PRESENTS: uXESIBE
(Featuring Zilimbola & Damage) LIVE AT TBPS!

Please join us, once again, to welcome our brother Ndlulamthi.

21 years in the game, Ndlulamthi has been offering storytelling, consciousness, love, community, struggle and the realities of everyday life. Now he returns to TBPS with uXesibe; for a live hip-hop experience featuring Zilimbola and Damage

Through the years it has been thrilling to witness our brother's commitment to the art of MC, since his first album, Isbhilivane: The Love Letter, he remains undefeated in the skill of delivery.

Knowledge, lived experience, skill and expression are the bane of the craft, Ndlulamthi couples this with dopeness and swag that speaks for itself.

Across the world hip-hop has transformed into a language, identity, resistance, consciousness, and hope, that gives the MC a voice to tell their truth and the power to challenge reality.

We get to witness this live, uXesibe connects an ancient history of a people of sovereignty, land and identity.

Amaxesibe are know for their resistance against territorial expansion by the neighbouring Mpondo and the legendary defence of Mount Ntsizwa remain part of local oral history.

Their chiefdom was annexed to the British Cape Colony in 1886, and apartheid later brought further dispossession, political disenfranchisement and displacement through the incorporation of Xesibeland into the Transkei Bantustan.

Xesibe has survived through it. The people who refused to disappear.

Ndlulamthi brides history, culture, and contemporary experience. Indigenous identity meets the modern MC.

The three aforementioned artists are bringing their different styles, languages, experiences, histories and approaches to storytelling.

September is a month that carries deep political and historical meaning in South Africa and reminds us of Black Consciousness, identity and Political Awareness. Biko Lives

IT IS THE RETURN OF THE CYPHER !
