 Blxckmail entertainment artists and Nandoland Empire (Amanandos) released a single titled S’2 by 2 that is currently rocking air waves.

The single was released end of last month and was composed and mastered by a collaborative effort of nine Blxckmail passionate hip-hop RnB artists.

In an interview, Jt Special boy and Honest Beatz who represented other artists said as solo artists under Blxckmail entertainment they warmed up to collaborate on the single as they wanted to test their joined efforts as they have worked and helped one another on their individual projects.

The duo said they were grateful that their combined efforts paid off as the single has since received positive response from the audience especially amongst the youth and has been sitting in the Yarona Fm top 10.

They said though they each had singles, which were played in various radio stations, they would continue making music as a team to perfect the local music and bring out the best from one another.

They said they were going to release mix tapes and more singles until they had a strong audience base.

They also said they were a movement that advocate for local music and aim to nurture upcoming artists from across all genres.

“S’ 2 by 2 is our first in-house collaborated work and we are amazed by the positive feedback, which is a call for us to make and perfect our craft and make more good music for the people,” Jt said.

They said they were more of a family than just mere artists adding that as Blxckmail they do all genres as a production house they mix urban music with street culture and aim for international standard production.

On the single, they said they discussed a concept and all the nine artists came up with lyrics, which were presented to the group for correction.

S’ 2 by 2 is the work of ANLA, JT Special BOY, VaVo Pound, TH BlaxckMail, K.O.P.O, Spetty Namba, Slym, JDe Superstar, Uth ThaMeek, Flazer and was produced by HonestBeatz.

In their records they have worked and affiliated with most local artists such as Touch Motswako, Apollo Diablo and Enigma and others.

The movement has also ventured into social corporate responsibility as they have offered free entertainment in various events during the month of youth against HIV/AIDS, World day for cultural diversification for dialogue and development that were hosted by NGOs.

Like many artists, they market their music on social media especially Facebook, which has mass audience.

JT advised parents to support their children explore their talents adding that parental support was the ultimate constituent to success.

He encouraged upcoming artists to brand their image as an artist, build audience and give education more priority as most of their artists were graduates while others were undergraduates.

He further said females should come out of the closet, work on their musical talent as they were equally talented and important as they bring balance in the industry.

They also implored corporate entities to engage them in their endorsements, sponsor and support them in all ways possible. ENDS
