I am Blaq Blood

Born and Bred in Mamelodi, Pretoria this lyrically versatile microphone fiend is known to many by this stage name of Blaq Blood (Jakalase). His love for hiphop was provoked in 94 after hearing a track by coolio. Six years later he wrote his first of poetry piece trying to express his feelings for one of the girls in his neighborhood; from there writing became second nature as he found comfort in expression through poetry.


It wasn’t long until he grabbed the mic for the very first time at function in high school. The street still knew how to reach him getting inspiration from people like RUD, Nasty Joe and Vandalizer. In grade nine young Blaq wrote his first hip hop verse, a year later he had quarter of his school mates in the game. From 2003 to 2005 like a dog unchained he ran the streets of Mamelodi invading ciphers and poetry sessions. After getting High school outa the way, he put on his hustle suit, expanded his game, started lacing tracks and attended serious shows. Dr Bullet proof introduced the young Hustler to a whole knew sound that navigated his movement from thereon. Direction became evident when Blaq blood performed at the Pretoria show ground where he shared the stage with press, which was when he went in to ukhozi FM shows. He got the chance to perform at the inkhathazo 2 annual Mamelodi music poetry concert.


His greatest highlight was when he performed at club 55 in Pretoria. The future seemed his for the taking when he linked up with some of his boys to form a group called Black listed, the quickly started working on a single, getting to understand his voice better towards the mic. After few months he became a regular at sessions called Azania seed poetry sessions in Mamelodi. Due to the noise he was making, he got the attention of street knowledge entertainment, an up and coming Entertainment Company.


As a member of the knowledge family he started putting in work on their first mixtape in preparation of his debut album. Having recorded a few tracks, he invaded house 22 where he tore the roof off. Back in Mamelodi he disturbs the peace at class extreme every Thursdays. Recently toured with the Reosen and rhyme to Soshanguve and mabopane where he left the crowd screaming for more of that Blaq blood. With for tracks done for the street knowledge ENT mixtape, the question remains: R u Ready for JAKALASE..
