Have you heard the one about HHP, an unresponsive crowd, border control and a rasta? No? Well read this:
HHP took to Instagram on Friday to tell us an awesome story about when he was younger and when he travelled to a gig with a rasta.
"I get my first gig enquiry in Lesotho," he starts. " I'm excited because growing up, Lefa's dad used to tell me tales of Lesotho le Sankomota. I got booked with Baphixile. Perfect. Now I could try be friends with them. For transport, we had to go to noord, look for a taxi, take it off line, pay, go to a show and get brought back to noord where we'd catch a cab back home.
This time we found a Jahman from Yeoville to take us. Forgot who found him. I was experimenting with weed so I thought being driven by Jahman would be DOPE (pun intended). Themba, the now actor & sex tjaro, was the promoter for the show. The show was called #MadeInLesotho. We left for Lesotho. I was sitting in the front. Jahman pulled out a massive newspaper full of weed & asked me to roll him a joint. I had never rolled a joint...but I tried. We bonded le majita on the way and it was an amazing trip. We got to Lesotho and Jahman turns to me & Blaxmyth to say: "Me don't have a passport Man!" Wtf?! "Me live in Azania! Down with babylon & it's borders!!!
Long story short, we throw jahman in the boot and blax had to drive into Lesotho. We drove into Lesotho on 1st gear with a jerking car. Cops suspected something but they let us go. Jahman gets out the boot & we go to the hotel. Next day, we're at Morija. Performing after Sankomota. Got on stage & although folks didn't boo, they just didn't respond. We left stage disappointed as usual & Jahman asked to perform since he has a group in Yeoville. We told him, nah, folks don't wanna hear ragga. We just wanted to GO. Jahman disappears & we hear the crow going MAD! He Banna, there's Jahman killing the crowd ACCAPELLA! *jaws dropped* He got in the car, drove to Jozi & that was that."
Crazy!
