South African hip-hop star Nasty C brings together Tellaman and Blxckie on “Mode,” a three-way collaboration lifted from the “T’s & C’s Apply” project.
Blxckie’s involvement here isn’t new territory. So “Mode” continues a working relationship that goes back to his 2021 debut album “B4Now,” where Nasty C himself appeared as a guest. Now the roles shift slightly, with Blxckie stepping into Nasty C’s own project instead. That kind of reciprocal feature history says something about how tightly connected South Africa’s hip-hop scene actually is behind the scenes.
But three distinct voices on one track always risks feeling crowded. Here, each artist gets defined space instead of fighting for the same lane. Nasty C drives the energy, Blxckie adds his own sharp cadence, and Tellaman ties both performances together with his signature vocal warmth.
“Mode” adds another dimension to a project that keeps expanding its guest list with names who already share history with Nasty C.
