Head Honcho’s new winter range as modeled by our ambassadors Teko Modise, Lulo Cafe, AKA, DJ Speedsta, DJ Fanatic & DJ Franky. Available at SHESHA and select SPORTSCENE stores.

Congrats to our boy for a truly great year! Against all odds he has accomplished what few guys in the world of hip hop have managed to. The Honcho scooped both of the awards (Best Urban and Best Male Artist) that he was nominated for at this year’s MTN SAMAs. This makes the total number of awards won for ALTAR EGO 8 … an incredible feat for a rap artist in SA.

Oh, and did you peep the custom-made Caesar Honcho crewneck that he was rocking during his performance? We might release that joint in limited quantities …

All love to the Showlove Music team who put in a lot of hard work over the past 12 months!!

AKA and Reason have teamed once again to bring us an extra cold version of Kanye’s controversial “Threaflu(Way Too Cold)” single, and they are calling it Benylin. Download the song here

The organisers of the 2012 MTN SAMAs finally announced the nominees for this year’s edition of the prestigious awards. The likes of Zahara & MiCasa walked away with multiple nominatons but the good news is that our boys Lulo Cafe & AKA also managed to score significant nods.

AKA is nominated in 2 categories i.e. Best Male Artist and Best Street Urban Album for his debut ‘Altar Ego’. Lulo Cafe on the other hand surprised everyone by receiving a nod in the Record of the Year category alongside some of the biggest names in the music industry for his big summer hit “I wanna love you” that features the songbird Nothende.

We need all of the Honchos to rally behind our fam by voting for him. SMS the letter ‘G’ to 0831237262 as many times as you can .. Lets bring the SAMAs home!!

Cape Town was abuzz last week with one of the best parties to take place this year. The good people of Hunter’s Dry threw a party like no other at Laguna Beach, a hotel with sweeping views of the Mother City. Chinas, as Hunter’s Dry consumers are often called, partied the night away on a beautiful Summer day.

Hunter’s Dry flew down some of the best bands, DJs and rappers to come entertain the lucky few. Artists such as AKA, Khuli Chana, GoodLuck, Gangs of Instrumental, JR left the crowd in awe with jaw-dropping performances. DJs Poppy from 5FM, Vigilante and our very own pH bumped some of the best beats this side of the equator.

To say this was a great party would be an understatement … Shout out to Hunter’s Dry for the great hospitality. And to our boy Thapelo Mokoena, the No. 1 China, we see you playboy .. keep doing your thang!

Our boy AKA is once again dropping more HEAT for the streets out there … We got an exclusive new joint that features the boys from Castime Fam Da Kid X & Smashis. They flipped Rozay’s new joint ‘Stay Schemin’ and tore it a new one .

Kiernan spits, “Told them to call me the prince/ They started calling me King/ They should be calling me Vince, I put my arm in the rim” .. in reference to one of the most skillful NBA players of all time, Vince Carter.

29 December 2011 … Head Honcho made history. Our 3rd Bday Bash was insaaaaane. People talk about shutting a city down with their parties but we really did it. Our bash caused a hectic traffic jam coming into the  V&A Waterfront … We had a queue with hundreds of people as early as 10:30pm.

More than 1200 revelers partied and celebrated with us. We’re grateful for the love that y’all showed us. Much love to our sponsors Power Play, Miller Genuine Draft, the venue Casablanca and all the DJ’s that killed it on the evening. Special shout out to MiCASA and AKA for giving performances of their lives.

The freshest streetwear brand in the land is now 3 years old … We look forward to seeing even more people at the 4th Bday Bash.

Thank you Honchos.
