Review: Treblez – #TheLiveTapes album recording

Who’d have thought? Hip hop works really well live. I’m not just talking about a live vocalist, I’m talking a rapper and full band. Dwayne Tryumf proved it could be done well when he recorded his album in 2011 and tonight Treblez did the same. Treblez, the GL Records artist appeared at El Shaddai church…

This was certainly true with both rappers that headlined tonight’s Sunday Night Live event. Both were truly open about their stories and their tracks, with…

It was an event that was hyped for months and Friday night was when the time finally arrived for Dwayne Tryumf to gather a crowd at ULU to record his new album. It became a night with a busy line up and a set that didn’t disappoint. When I first heard about the gig, the…
