On coming across the album title, 'The Johannesburg Files', one is very likely to know not what to expect exactly even though it apparently portends something out of the ordinary - and sure it is! In bearing testimony to the universality of music, The Johannesburg Files draws its contributors from South Africa, Nigeria, the USA, and the Netherlands.

A new musical satire arrives on the scene. It's all humorous rap lyrics, social sensitization, and everything that comes in between.

Independent Haisla hip hop crew Snotty Nose Rez Kids impress with their second full length release of the year. Laid back pulsations coated with masterful doubled up rhymes that first sound brazen and indifferent, but that’s only icing on an impressive 17 tracks of powerful political commentary.

The tasteful sound arrangement, perfectly balanced and varied in rhythm to make for a suitable musical accompaniment to the rap vocals.
