Rapper ‘Phyzix’ says his much anticipated song expected be released on Thursday April 7, is a special dedication to hip-hop music for the great role it played in changing his life.
Speaking in an interview with 247 Malawi on Saturday, the rapper said he thought of releasing the song, titled “Show me the way” as one way of celebrating his 16-years of friendship with hip-hop duo “The Daredevilz”.
But writing on his Facebook page on Monday, the artist said apart from celebrating his friendship with the duo, “Show me the way” is also a Thanksgiving song to hip-hop for changing his life.
He wrote, “I was a very rebellious teenager! Always in fist fights. My environment was not very inspiring.
I found my inspiration to be a better person from Hip Hop music and my late Mother. I will always honor my Mother and Hip Hop music.”
He further said after conducting a memorial service for his mother, he also thought it wise to honor his other greatest inspiration which is hip-hop music.
“We honored my late Mother last week in a Church Service dedicated to her. This week, The Daredevilz and I will honor Hip Hop music on Thursday at 12:00hrs.Happy Hip Hop Week!!!
