Issue 10: Trompie The Beatmachine


Trompie-The Beat Machine 

Trompie, TheBeatmachine is a heavyweight Producer of note bred from Atteridgeville, Pretoria. He has worked with the likes of Towdeemac, KayGizm, Skillo, KT and Damola, to mention some. He has had to be patient in his journey in the industry. He went from being a rapper, a beat maker, a DJ and finally a Producer. With that experience he easily breaks down the difference between being a Producer and a beat maker “one creates a blueprint, one orchestrates the plan to the blueprint”

Article 45: Capable of anything

Do more

We capable of many things, yet we somehow choose to ignore everything. We live in a world of opportunities, but all we interested in is material things. We count other people's blessings and forget they are living their lives and we are neglecting ours. We are all blessed with capabilities, unlimited sources of information yet we choose to use them for senseless things. I don't mean to be mean to anyone, but I miss the days when being real was the only real around, when dignity used to be everything. We seem to be sinking into another form of slavery where we judge others on their looks, weight, social status and even social network statuses. Slavery that has blinded most of us into believing we need the approval of others in order to pursue a dream. We use words such as "hate" and "swag" to describe who we are.


We conform to the blindness we see on Tv, hear on radio and spend our time trying to be someone else. Since when was it ok to be compared? Since when did we change our names to sound like we are cool? Since when was immitation the new grattification? Are we so desperate to be liked so much that we judge our importance from Facebook likes? I mean we even follow proudly on social networks and to become a leader you have to break someone else down. I don't write this article to defile, discourage nor judge anyone, I'm simply raising the fact that we are capable of many things

Let's all make a change to get some change. Let's not fight for power, let's rather fight for something that lasts, let's fight for CHANGE because we are CAPABLE.
