ButiOnTheTrack – ‘PRESSURE’ (feat. KX LEGIT, KEB, VEEZO VIEW & FROST LEGATO) – An All-Star Masterclass
When ButiOnTheTrack brings together a lineup like KX LEGIT, KEB, VEEZO VIEW, and FROST LEGATO for a track titled “PRESSURE,” you know you’re in for a lyrical onslaught. This isn’t just a song; it’s a masterclass in collaborative hip-hop, showcasing some of Botswana’s finest talents delivering raw bars over Buti’s production.
The track kicks off with KX Legit, who immediately sets the tone with his signature big talk. He raps about success fueled by passion, his self-driven independence, declaring himself his “own ticket to NASA.” He knows that showing up on a Buti production is what earns him accolades, emphasizing the power of hard work and dedication. His opening verse is a confident declaration of his lane and his relentless climb.
Next up, the O.G. K.EB steps in with his timeless flow. He bounces effortlessly over the beat, reminding everyone why he’s one of the best to ever come out of Botswana with the raps. His “sunny side rap” shines through, radiating confidence and a celebratory vibe. It’s a great team-up, hearing him deliver solidly after a while, proving his enduring skill.
Veezo View then takes the baton and runs with it, delivering a truly meaningful and reflective verse. His line, “turn your pain into your dreams,” stands out, encapsulating a powerful message of transformation and resilience. He openly shares his love for rap, explaining how it lights him up, effectively turning pressure into presence. Veezo’s contribution is both personal and universally inspiring.
Finally, Frost Legato closes out the track with his characteristic wit and profound insight. His line, “This ain’t pressure, its blessings,” is a perfect mic-drop moment, offering a fresh perspective on challenges and celebrating the journey. Coming back for seconds, Frost delivers a poignant and memorable closer that ties the entire track’s theme together.
“PRESSURE” is a testament to the individual strengths and collective synergy of these artists. ButiOnTheTrack has orchestrated a lyrical powerhouse, where each rapper brings their A-game, offering distinct flows, powerful messages, and undeniable presence. This track is a must-listen for any hip-hop head, showcasing the depth of talent within Botswana’s scene.
With his new single “Garri,” Botswana’s own WNDRSZN delivers a moving blend of nostalgia, rhythm, and reflection. The track feels like a time capsule — echoing the golden sounds of Africa’s past while remaining grounded in the grit of modern life.
Garri paints the picture of long days, crowded taxi rides, and quiet moments of exhaustion — when silence speaks louder than words. WNDRSZN captures the ache and beauty of that struggle with haunting tenderness, reminding us of the resilience that lives in ordinary people.
Inspired by African classics like Ismaël Lô’s Tajabone and Oliver Mtukudzi’s Neria, Garri draws from deep emotional wells of hope and survival. It’s not just a song; it’s a feeling — a lament, a memory, and a prayer for better days.
With his signature fusion of AfroSoul and Kalahari Pop, WNDRSZN once again reimagines what African music can sound like — rooted in heritage but speaking to now.
Garri is more than music. It’s a mirror to our everyday hustle — and a gentle call to keep going.
Priscilla K returns with a soulful new single titled “Show Me”, a heartfelt Afrobeat-meets-Afrotech track that blends rhythm and emotion effortlessly. In this song, she opens up about the need to be seen, to be affirmed, and to be reminded of her worth — especially in moments of doubt.
With lyrics like “Show me a sign I’m wanted, I’m worthy,” Priscilla delivers a message that’s both intimate and universal. It’s a plea for reassurance, but also an anthem of resilience — a reminder that even when we fall, we can rise again and fight.
Sonically, Show Me shimmers with layered percussion and subtle electronic textures, carried by her powerful, emotive vocals. It’s a record that feels alive — grounded in vulnerability, but glowing with hope.
Show Me isn’t just a song — it’s a moment of honesty from an artist unafraid to feel, fall, and rise again.
It’s been a minute since we last heard from Clever Blanco, but the Faded Gang member is back with a fresh project titled Lit No More. The tape opens with Cops & Robbers, a smooth but gritty groove that instantly pulls you in. Blanco shows his range across the project — from the introspective Heart Ain’t Gold to the hard-hitting Rage Manual.
The project also features appearances from Ando Slime, Angvlo, and Maxx Tokyo, adding different textures to Blanco’s production and flow. As a producer, musician, writer, and rapper, Clever Blanco sounds refreshed and focused. Lit No More is a solid reminder of his creative depth — and proof that good music never really leaves, it just waits for the right moment to return.
