Attention HipHop Heads: Kenyan HipHop About To Get A Facelift (VIDEO)

For a while now, Kenyan hiphop has been all about machismo and bravado but finally, a group of lads has realized they can merge hiphop with a bit of class and still be underground and authentic. Personally, this has always been what I have had in mind when I think about cyphers; crisp, clean quality with all the raw talent still involved.

And I have an example of exactly what I have in mind: a cypher done by Kenyan lads that is is well done and still features Kenyan artists who are underground -who said the underground has to constantly be grimy and at that, who said grimy has to be low quality?

The cypher is called Kenyan Hype Cypher and is the first volume of what I am told will be a compilation of 10 volumes. Talk about ambition! I just hope the lads working on this do not burn out. thew entire idea behind the cypher however is for it to cross the bridge behind the underground and mainstream.

Check it out below and let me know what you think of it:
