It's no secret that Emtee has become one of the country's rising urban music stars. However, despite defying expectations and garnering praise from fans and more established peers alike, it turns out the Roll Up hitmaker wasn't all that impressed with his work.
Taking to Twitter in on Monday night, Emtee revealed that he was recording new music. He applauded and commended himself, saying "it is one of the best records" he has ever made.
However, shortly after he explained that he was never a fan of his own music.
This comes as a surprise to many fans who believe that the softly spoken and laid-back rapper is nothing short of confident.
He also has, on several occasions, hardly shied away from revealing that he was well aware that he would come out of nowhere and set the local hip-hop industry alight, with just a few singles under his belt.

"I believe in myself, know what I’m capable of and [realise] what I have to offer," he told Mail & Guardian during an interview earlier this year.
"I don’t even remember myself having a nine-to-five job except for one that lasted a week. This [music] is what I wanted to do and ever since deciding to take my [musical] career seriously, things have gone smoothly," he added.
