JR, Winner of “Song of the Year, Hip Hop for “Gata le Nna” – Hype Magazine 2008 Metro FM “Best Hip Hop Album” Finalist 2008 South African Music Awards (SAMA) nominee, “Best Hip Hop Album” for “The Main Event” – 2009 He gave you the smasher, the acclaimed, t…he game changing, the effervescent, the no.1 spot holder on both pop flagships YFM and MetroFM for over 6weeks, a ReckShoppe produced number one single “Gata le Nna”. Not to be halted by one hit wonder gyrates, he returned with the second single out of the hot album “The Main Event”. JR once again did a first in the HipHop game in South Africa if not the whole of Africa when he clinched an Endorsement deal with Renault SA, the F1 imprint.

Ladies and gentleman let me give you a brief on the background of this grounded muso. I say he is critically the best new comer on the music scene for the year 2008. A late eighties baby, a claimant to rank amongst the HipHop illuminati. Like moth to flame, he is a proven Picasso when rocking the sparkly piece aptly named “The Mic”. Some say there has never been as fast a rapper that they have heard before. He is known to you and me as ‘JR’.
