We had Stogie's visuals in our video but we ran into some issues with the video file so you will not see it in our reaction. We WERE watching the video though fyi! Thanks for watching!
Lovely reaction. Pls react to m.I abaga. React to his song" everything". I want to see how you guys breakdown the bars. The lyrics is on TH-cam . I want to hear you guys opnion on it. Pls I love you to do it.
You guys are dope as always, please try to reach out to some of these artists to provide further context for virtual interviews. I know they all follow you guys.
RAP God! Reason why South Africans don’t listen to him it’s cause he’s too deep and poetic!! He’s lines go over our heads. 😂z sometimes I literally have to listen 5 times
Much love from South Africa. You guys are the best. This is the only channel that knows how to interpret and breakdown every bar... Big up to you George and Ryan...
"Chilli bite like Durban" - a chilli bite is an Indian snack that is very popular in Durban, South Africa. Also it's ironic coz Durban is known as the warmest city in South Africa so when it's "chilly" you know it's getting real.
"Chilli bite like Durban" : * A Chilli🌶pepper is hot‐tasty when you bite it🥵🔥& Durban has most Indians, & obviously Indians likes chilli food alot.. *The Colonizers came to South Africa through Durban & they used spices(chilli peppers/spices) to bite our land..(Shaka Zulu era) *In South Africa we have 'Durban curry' noodles🍜 flavour which is actually the chilli🌶flavour somehow,& it's obviously not easy to eat/bite with no reaction..🥵🌶🍜 *Chillibite is also a main character from this other local movie(Izulu Lami) filmed in Durban.
Chilli Bite is a homeless character from a movie from Durban who sold his girl friend to a man to assault her in order to survive, hence the chilli bite like Durban meaning the cold homeless children endure. It is a double entendre because chilli bite is also a hot snack sold in Durban. That’s what makes the line impactful. A lot of prostitutes are sex trafficking victims. They may not want to do it but they have to do it for their next fix as they have been made drug dependent by their “pimps”. He’s basically saying everyone who goes to strip clubs/buy strippers is complicit
Great reaction as always do Stogie T sotra cypher next. We really appreciate the Stogie reaction from SA. I wish I could just give this reaction a million likes just to emphasize Stogie 's greatness
The "If that doesn't float your boat, call Jesus" line at the end was cold; Jesus walked on water when the waves got bad, the boat almost sank and his disciples got scared.
Stogie got bars for days "I wrote over their heads like Anne Frank" is exactly what he does. Reminds me of a line that I wrote that goes" When it comes to punchlines I prefer uppercuts over hooks// rhymes that float indefinitely and you discover later in life coz you overlooked//"
Chili bite like Durban... Chili bite is a character played based on a life of a street kid in Durban but also the other meaning is that Durban is know for spicy food so that can also mean chili bite like Durban. Stogie is our lyrical God Father, thank you to ya'll for showing him love
“Winter nights , they killed the lights , the chilli bite like Durban” 🔥 Coming from eThekwini and knowing how cold the sea breeze can get🥶 chilli cos outside of India Durban has the highest number of people of Indian descent And the food the culture brings 🌶 Thank you Sunrise (Sydenham/Overport) for ‘Jonny’s Special’
That "the chilli bites like Durban" line was fun. There's a play on words. The Indian community that is predominantly of a larger populus in the city of Durban is known for a food called chilli bites. Really good painter Stogie T🤞🏾
I think it was referencing Chilli Bite from the movie titled iZulu lami... Chilli bite and his older sister lost their mom and became orphans at a very young age. They decided to leave their rural home to seek a better life in the city of Durban... but things were very tough for them.
@@LwaziNzimandecorrection, two orphans from a village move to Durban and meet Chili bite, a young street kid/gangster and he sort of takes them and gives them protection.
The dopest thing that @LostinVegas could do is actually have some of these artists on here to further flesh out their lyrics. This is definitely the best reaction channel out there
Yeno sometimes when I love a video/song and I’ve watched your reactions already, I try other reaction videos and I can’t even finish them. You are in a league of your own in this game, GOATS 🐐
Like I told my mans, if there were any crumbs that Benny + Cole left on this beat, Stogie completely licked the plate clean! I don't know who's daring to touch this incredible beat again, after all those bars. Jeez! It's the cadence and delivery of the opening couplets, "the etiquette when a king enters, it's best that you bend a knee" that just sets the tone for the show his pen was about to put on. Big shout out for you guys getting on African rap. Can't wait till you explore Uganda too.
I think that "If that don't float your boat, the call Jesus" line actually refers to Matthew 8:23-27 where Jesus and his his disciples were on a boat and a heavy storm hit and water started entering the boat and while all of this was happening Jesus was asleep in said boat. The disciples panicked and woke Jesus as they were scared that they would perish. Jesus got up and commanded the storm to stop and it did, thus the line "If that don't float your boat, the call Jesus" because even though the boat was hit by waves and water entered it, the boat kept floating and never sank. PEACE!!! ✌✌✌✌✌ I am huge fan of you guys.
" the bounty of the eternal" line is a reference to the biblical story of Abraham, where God (the eternal) asked Abraham to take his own son's life as a sacrifice to him (the bounty). Which in the verse means that the pastors sell out the youth in black communities (sacrifice) in the name of religion (god). Well that's my stab at it?
Btw, love the analyses. Stogie is hated in SA by the new school heads as penmanship and political analysis is considered boring. It's refreshing how your appreciation of the artist really gives gravitas to the artist and what he represents. Stogie has maintained his principles for decades since tumi and the volume and previous acts. He toured Europe in the 90's and held the underground/ wholesome woke scene but didn't really get love in his country from general audiences. Since the Casper and AKA rivalry, tumi was seen as a dinosaur and had to reinvent himself as Stogie T to appeal to the masses. Respect how he still holds true to his principles. Yall doing a great job🙌🏾
It's crazy how this man paints with every syllable. You can literally see every damn word. There's a part where he gives you a plot twist on that Sotra Cypher freestyle and I had to admit to myself that we'll never have anything of his sort in this continent
Stogie T has been that guy! From the late 90s, sway and tech days, his solidified everywhere around the world. His flow is impeccable and timing is off this world. I just also wanna share that he can eat most Americans in a battle. His flow is raw and of different pedigree!
Me too, I have always requested that freestyle so many times but I think there are so many requests they come across from.......... But🙏🙏🙏react to Stogie t-Pound Cake freestyle.
Stogie T actually does make reference to Nasir Jones (and other black freedom fighters/poets) on his Sway Freestyle and says Nas is his handler. So, George I think your'e spot on in saying he has a Nas influence in him.
When you need Reactors who decipher lines in the most accurate way, Lost in Vegas, Stevie Knight and Knox Hill👌🔥🔥 and hey please do check his Sotra Cypher freestyle
Thank you guys…Tumi is South Africa’s Finest. He’s always been and it’s great seeing his greatness from others. If food won’t kill him, food for thought will feed you.
what a fun fact yall breaking down bars talking about no light, eating in the dark....... fighting roaches & yep.. its happeng 2 me ryt now..SOUTH AFRICAN PROBLEM..... LOADSHEDDING and theirs defenetly roaches whre i am.......and hell YEAH um eating um hungry ... I just woke UP at 2:30 AM
For those wondering Chilly Bite is actually a Character from a movie based in Durban. He is an ORPHAN who lives getting it by any means on the streets of Durban. Just a good reference when he talks about moms who abandon kids because they're a burden.

Speak for yourself.
Stogie's music is worth listening. He drop so much knowledge. His reference repertoire is unmatched. That's real rap!!
What do you mean "our" you're on your own buddy😭
His biggest audience is South African. This is inspite most of his references not being South African.
It's makes me so happy to see the love and legendary status Stogie T is getting on this channel

"Chilli bite like Durban" - a chilli bite is an Indian snack that is very popular in Durban, South Africa. Also it's ironic coz Durban is known as the warmest city in South Africa so when it's "chilly" you know it's getting real.
Chilli Bite is also the kid from the movie iZulu Lami which was filmed in Durban. I believe that's the main reference.
"Chilli bite" is also a characters name. Classic South African movie shot in Durban.
"Chilli bite like Durban" :
* A Chilli🌶pepper is hot‐tasty when you bite it🥵🔥& Durban has most Indians, & obviously Indians likes chilli food alot..
*The Colonizers came to South Africa through Durban & they used spices(chilli peppers/spices) to bite our land..(Shaka Zulu era)
*In South Africa we have 'Durban curry' noodles🍜 flavour which is actually the chilli🌶flavour somehow,& it's obviously not easy to eat/bite with no reaction..🥵🌶🍜
*Chillibite is also a main character from this other local movie(Izulu Lami) filmed in Durban.
Chilli Bite is a homeless character from a movie from Durban who sold his girl friend to a man to assault her in order to survive, hence the chilli bite like Durban meaning the cold homeless children endure. It is a double entendre because chilli bite is also a hot snack sold in Durban. That’s what makes the line impactful.
A lot of prostitutes are sex trafficking victims. They may not want to do it but they have to do it for their next fix as they have been made drug dependent by their “pimps”.
He’s basically saying everyone who goes to strip clubs/buy strippers is complicit
The chilliness means you are homeless like Chilli Bite
He toured all over the world with his "Tumi and the volume live at Baseline" album
I miss Tumi, Stogie sounds more like nas n an American wanna be
I miss Tumi I used to listen to

It's good to see intelligent people analyzing intelligent rappers. At its core the art of hip hop is intelligence
