Cheezynator, a Hip Hop group from Jouberton, Klerksdorp finally got its big break when it did a curtain raiser performance for Khuli Chana at the Last Sunday of 2013 event at Thys Joint in Jouberton on 29 December, but who is Cheezinator?
Cheezynator is a Lil Wayne inspired group that pulls no punches when rapping. They say it like it is. The group was founded in 2008 and has so far recorded 14 songs most of them are on a mixtape. They have recorded at Red Ant Productions in Jouberton Extension 10. The owner of Red Ant Productions, Allbad makes beats for Cheezynator.
They call themselves Cheezynator because they are from Extension 6, the nicest suburb in Jouberton. Cheez or cheese is associated with wealth in the Townships of South Africa.
The group is made up of 6 young men, they are “SJAY” aka “Tshego Maphelle”, “Chedda Gunz” aka “Lesego Sthunye”, “Cat Meaw” aka “Kagiso Mosegomi”, “Teazy T-Bang” aka “Thabang Mosalaesi”, “SMG” aka “Itumeleng Lestape” and “Fug” aka “Mfundo Maseloa”.
“We are going to buy a Vito Benz with our first pay check when we become big Hip Hop stars,” said SJAY. The group aims to shoot music videos in 2014 and to get a record deal.
“S.A Hip Hop is doing well but it is missing us.
We are the missing link,” said Chedda Gunz.
