From the top of the tower, the list goes, POG – Phunk Phow, Amu – The Life, Rap & Drama, Skwatta Kamp – Khut En Joyn, PROKid – Heads & Tales, The Book Of ProVerb, Morafe –Maru A Pula, Tuks Senyanga – Mafoko A Me, Hip Hop Pantsula – Acceptance Speech, Khuli Chana – Lost In Time, Zakwe – Zakwe, AKA – Levels, K.O – Skhanda Republic, Emtee – Avery, Cassper Nyovest – Thuto, Kwesta – DaKar II, Nasty C – Strings and Bling and YoungstaCpt – 3T.
Of course, not all his follower’s agreed with Rashid’s list, one tweep even asked him if Thutho is Cassper’s best hip hop album as they feel that the rappers first one and his latest album Any Minute Now are quite amazing. Rashid reminded the tweep that “Some artists like @ProVerbMusic have more than one classic and I didn’t list all of them.” Rashid also explained the meaning of the empty on the side that has no label on it. He said that fans can add their own whoever they like to it.
Rashid also reminded tweeps that they should skip politics when it comes to his tweet. as he has only mentioned some and not all the classics. Another tweep commented that hip hop is a weird genre, as they were wondering why a certain album is not on the list and at the same time are happy to see another favourite but shared that Rashid’s caption explained it all. “Lol HipHop is one weird genre, I’m out here like why is Dark or Blue not there, at the same time I’m happy to see Skhanda Republic. Meanwhile, it’s all in the caption “some of the most…”
