WEEKLY HIP HOP FEATURE: TEARGAS


The South African trio Teargas includes Ntokozo "K.O." Mdlui and brothers Ezee "Ma-E" Hanabe and Bantu "Ntukza" Hanabe.  As proud South Africans, the group assumed its name to transform the tear gas thrown at apartheid-era protesters into a unifying musical tool. They hit the scene riding positive vibes off their 2006 debut K'Shubile K'Bovu. Their 2009 album Dark and Blue promotes messages of partying and perseverance, including the song "Hold On," which urges young people to learn their HIV/AIDS status. Their video "Mhlobo Wami," which was released in 2010, tells stories of love, trust and betrayal in the proud language of their countrymen. In 2012 they released yet another album titled Numba Numba, which features a music video "Wake Up" which was aimed to encourage young people to stand up and work at realising their dreams, since the release of Numba Numba the gents have release 2 more single and videos after the single "Wake Up".
