Shots fired! DJ Speedsta thinks the hip-hop world is like a braai with no meat

Popular muso DJ Speedsta is gatvol of young hip-hop artists having a sense of entitlement, and wants to set a few things straight.

The DJ, who hosts a popular weekly hip-hop show on YFM, was challenged by a Twitter follower on Thursday to play "new talent" instead of the usual artists.

• IN MEMES: Twitter goes nuts for Cassper's #TitoMboweniCassper Nyovest nearly shut down Twitter on Friday when he released his highly-anticipated single Tito Mboweni.  

Speedsta didn't take kindly to the challenge and soon got his Twitter fingers oiled up to get a couple of things off his chest, starting with the quality of music at the moment, and the need for new talent to take "their sh*t seriously"

I'm not gonna play new talent material to make you happy. I play dope shit, I don't care who you are, how you look, where you from. Simple! https://t.co/b40ezOW3qV

@Gdin_sa i get a minimum of 50 trap songs a week through submissions, most of the time only 20% of the stuff I get is worth a listen.

@Gdin_sa So maybe "New Talent" must also start taking their shit serious & produce good products.

Speedsta said that he was not in the business of playing music out of pity and that artists should start working on their craft , and not just show up like a person with no meat at a braai.

@Gdin_sa This is not a "Feeling sorry for each other" business here, I'm not gonna play things just for the sake of playing it.

As a artist you can sit & cry all day about the industry because you think you dope and so must everyone else. You need to work!

If we're honest, a lot of things are too easy in this country. People are so used to getting things easily

That's the mentality with a lot of people and a lot of things especially in SA Hip Hop. The "Come to a braai with no meat or drinks" people.

He ended his sermon with a shot at social media critics, who he claimed "think they f*cken sh*t ice cream".

And then of course the biggest problem, SOCIAL MEDIA.    The cyber bullies are the heroes and they think they fucken shit ice cream.
