TshisaLIVE got a chance to speak to the lit rapper on what this all means to him. Having only been in the game for less than a year, Blxckie has made noteworthy progress.

Blxckie was touched by the results. He has been working extremely hard to make his mark in the Mzansi music scene and it has clearly paid off.

While Blxckie is extremely grateful for the nod, the artist had a hunch he would smash it. He has a large and loyal fan base who he knew wouldn’t let him down.

“It really feels amazing. It has always been something I was looking forward to. Would watch it every year and be inspired. It’s even crazier that it’s my first time being on the list.”

“I won’t lie, I was expecting it. Nobody works harder so it’s only fitting. This just means that I’ve become a target for a lot of other artists that want that position so it’s just up to me to stay on my toes and make sure nobody catches up.”
