 Teng, awwepe, they go by the name of the syndicate, please introduce yourselves. Granvel, ama IG, weather Facebook, ama IG. Onajo, we need spellings for this name. At Il Granvel. Yeah, Il Granvel. I'm pronouncing it properly, isn't it? Yeah, you're pronouncing it properly. Il Granvel. Yeah. Safi. Langkusik. Langkusik. Yeah. Bra. Bra. So, atakabli to, to those names, let's talk about the syndicate, not that name itself. Why the syndicate? Konini o jinam lichagwa? The syndicate came about when I was in the Sailor's Gang, Bullock's Gang, so we decided to go out of the box and then we decided to choose something that could represent the whole gang, not using the name of the syndicate, so we should be syndicate. It encompasses everybody who is in the movement. All together we're working as a syndicate together towards the same gang. So, there's more than just the two of you? Yeah, there's more than just the two of us. So, who else is involved? But together the two of you is a group in itself, in its own? No, it's not a group in its own because of the coronavirus and social distancing and stuff, we have to come on it over to the whole group. Okay, now I get you. As a group we are four in total. As a group? The syndicate now? Yeah, the syndicate. Nice. So, Revos and Yandusi. Oh, kwa api lockdown? They are watching us live. They are tuned in. Kali sana, lakini, niendom liansisha? We back when? Initially, we had started independently, so we were two, I and Revos. I was working with Tusi. And they were working as independent rappers, so we decided to come together as brothers because we had known each other for a very long time. And you share the same vision? We share the same vision. And your brand is hip-hop? Yeah, our brand is hip-hop. Let's talk about, since it's only the two of you representing the whole crew, let's talk about your vision of hip-hop, what it should be. Sayze tunana, gingetun maliko. Are we conforming? We are hip-hop, that's our brand of hip-hop. Are we conforming just to get that cash quick? You know, for the cash quick thing, I can say it's much of it. The gingetun side, they go in, take in the tree. It's really niche to get it. Is it real hip-hop though? Yeah, it's real hip-hop. Real hip-hop. Listening to people like Tupak, B.I.G. And the new legends like Papa Jones. No, no, I'm referring to now gingetun. I would say gingetun is not typically real hip-hop, there's a difference, but through the delivery and the type of beats, if you compare it to the hip-hop culture, there's a difference. It's not like the culture of hip-hop, hip-hop stands separate from the gingetun culture. Yeah, for gingetun, I think it's more transfer, because the beats you hit, boom, boom, boom, bang, bang, bang. Hip-hop, there's that melody, there's that tune. And the content delivery. What you deliver, what you present to the people, it's different with what they present to the people, what they speak to the people about. So who are you listening to when you're coming out? For me, mostly it's Wayne. Lil Wayne is one of my best friends. Then I heard your vibe, you swag and your Wayne, yeah? Kitambu, ilia kitambu. That's the real hip-hop there. Like father like son, when he was coming out in badman, that was like two or five, two or six, so I could drop like father like son, standing like my daddy. Yeah, that was the big hit back then. What about you? Who was inspiring you? What about you? For me, I'd say I've been listening to someone who's a lyricist. That's Eminem, you know. But then I'm not afraid. I'm not afraid. I'm never afraid. so Eminem is my mind. What is my mind? Music sasa ya the syndicate Mumekam pamoja What's the genre? Because we explore different genres Kuna bongo, mefanya Kuna gengitu, mefanya Lafkuna ele hip-hop, hip-hop sasa Hip-hop So the syndicate I'm purchasing an EP Ya man album ya the syndicate What am I expecting?
