LAS NUMBER
Eastern Cape born and Dimbaza bred, LasNumber is a talented musician who practices the skill of rhyming in a fresh mix of
Vernacular and English rap. Number’s music encompasses various elements from various musical backgrounds. It involves street-talk
and highly influential messages in isiXhosa, English and other South African languages, yet largely comprehended lingo. Number
brings a different flavour and sound, not only to Hip-Hop music but also to the music scene in general. One of his objectives is to
encourage and inspire the Eastern Cape Hip-Hop community and bring it to National appeal and spotlight.
Number is not new to the music industry; he signed with Johannesburg based Rubber Ribs records in 2008 and released his debut
album “East Side Flavour” in the same year. The album did reasonably well but did not hit the expected heights. It’s hugely original
and Xhosa infused distinctive sound endeared Number to fans throughout the Eastern Cape and S.A.
His hit singles "Hai S**a", "Ubomi” and "Good Times" have received extensive airplay from radio stations like TruFm, Umhlobo
Wenene, Bay FM, Fort Hare FM and Rhodes Community Radio. He has performed on big events around the EC like BCMM CARNIVALS,
Metro FM Heatwave, and the Count-down Music Fest etc. With artist such as Kwesta, Cassper Nyovest, AKA, Micasa etc. Most
recently he had the honour of doing a song with Wandile Mbambeni from Gallo Records, on his debut album and the
song proves to be a hit on the digital platforms as it is listed as one of the most streamed from the album.
His previous singles n Me and **a ft. Churx have been a hit on download with the video released not so long ago also
