Editor's note

Nasty C, the Durban rapper with melodic hooks

A South African hip-hop voice who writes about growing up there, from breakout hit 'Hell Naw' to albums like 'Zulu Man with Some Power.'

For a quick sense of his sound, try 'Steve Biko' or 'Hell Naw.' They frame what he does pretty well.

He became a prominent figure in South Africa's hip-hop scene with songs that mix straightforward rapping and melodic hooks. 'Steve Biko' shows his style, and 'Hell Naw' was his breakout single in 2016. He writes about his experiences growing up in the country, giving his music a specific, grounded feel.

He started rapping young and put out his first mixtape, 'One Kid, a Thousand Coffins,' in 2015. After 'Hell Naw' hit, his albums include 'Bad Hair,' 'Strings and Bling,' and 'Zulu Man with Some Power.' He has worked with other artists including Rowlene, T.I., and Major Lazer.
