Collaborative creative partners, Rex Steele and Slush Papi are releasing their music into the market in a totally adventurous way. The rap duo dropped two new tracks, Vuka Kleva and Free30K, which act as a soundtrack for their upcoming documentary.
The documentary is titled Zuma’s Zoo and it will be released on the 27th of April. It is a highlight of the pair’s journey and struggles and their passion to get their music heard. This is the story of 2 hip-hop creatives in a troubled environment finding a way to overcome the struggle through music and art.
The documentary then becomes a reflection of modern day South Africa seen through the eyes of the rappers. Rex Steele explains: “Zuma’s Zoo is about creating a new platform to showcase our music, to creatively depict our surroundings and artistry into one form. Which is why this is not entirely a documentary but more of a depiction of a lifestyle, as our regular lives and hustle / grind in this lovely city of ours is promulgated”.
Instead of just dropping another single in an already over saturated market, they wanted to execute something different. Something to express their emotions and creativity by showing how they adapt and manoeuvre in this environment. The documentary will be preceded by the release of a series of separate music videos and the soundtrack is available on iTunes and all other digital platform.
Zuma’s Zoo is shot by Sky Heaven and produced by O.T.Z (Operation Thatha Zonke).- Adapted from press release.
