Here’s Why PH Raw X Finds Himself Relatable To Kanye West. Multi award winning producer pH Raw X has cemented himself in the SA Hip Hop industry as one of the top producers in the game. He has worked with some of SA’s biggest names including Khuli Chana, Sho Madjozi and Busisiwa and continues to be a trailblazer in the industry much like Kanye West.

pH recently appeared on Ms Cosmo and Scoop Makhathini’s POPradio to discuss a number of topics relating to the star producer’s rise in the industry as well as the success he has gained over the years. The three also discussed pH’s family life and how important it is for him to showcase his Tsonga roots in his music.

Ms Cosmo asked pH Raw X about how he feels when people try to box him into solely being a producer opposed to stepping outside of the box and also exploring life as an artist. pH mentioned that he finds himself relating to Grammy winning rapper Kanye West a lot.

”Kanye West’s story is very close to anybody like me, from where we come from. Like actually having to prove ourselves and fight actually against a grain.
