Emtee Declares His Rebirth At Sold-Out One-Man Show. Emtee, the self-proclaimed Hustla, took centre stage at Emperor’s Palace on Saturday, March 8, 2025, delivering an unforgettable performance in celebration of his decade-long journey in South African hip-hop. The event dubbed the Big Hustle Show, saw the rap star reaffirm his commitment to his craft, declaring this moment as his official rebirth.
“Hey, I’m back and I’m focused, so you can consider this the rebirth,” Emtee told a roaring crowd. “You know, kinda let go of some old habits. And I’m proud of myself, man, forget to tell about it. Never thought that I would be at this point. I pray more, slay more, take care of my brothers so I can live long and make more hits for y’all.”
This heartfelt declaration marked a significant turning point for Emtee, who has been open about past struggles. Now, with a fresh outlook and a renewed passion for music, the Roll Up hitmaker assured fans that he’s here to stay, stronger than ever.
The Big Hustle Show One Man Show was nothing short of a hip-hop spectacle, with a star-studded lineup featuring Sjava, A-Reece, Saudi, Fifi Cooper, Big Zulu, and many more. The event was a testament to Emtee’s influence and longevity in the game, with each guest artist adding to the electric atmosphere.
Following the show, Emtee took to Instagram to express his gratitude: “I’d like to thank everyone who came to the #Bighustleshow out at @emperors_palace. Thank you for the love, the support, and the positive energy you all came through with. A special thanks to @goldex_events, @emteerecords, and all the artists who graced the stage and shared this night with me and mine. I am overwhelmed with gratitude 🙏🏽.
