More about the book!

Siya ‘Slikour’ Metane, founding member of hip-hop group Skwatta Kamp, unpacks his memoir Slikour: The Life Story of a Hip-Hop Pioneer.
Told with signature humour, this memoir gives readers an all-access pass to the moments and the music that made the man, detailing the courage it took to overcome his self-doubt and to mould himself into a media maverick.
Together with Helen Herimbi-Moremi, Metane has created a must-read for anyone craving a story of courage and inspiration.
Talking to Thabi Madiba of Polity, Metane explains how the book came about, where his love for music came from, and why he turned to rap as a genre.
