BULUMKO “BG”
Operations Director
Started out early 90’s with an 8 man crew named “Street Corner Thugs”, which had a divers sound taking its forms from the then American sounds of the west coast style & some members with a hard east coast style, with “Spliff J”, Mark, Cats Claw & Big are some of the Members.
In 1994 I started my own crew/group “Maxcui” with Lynda “Snambuzane” aka “Lyndz”, “Phil Coki” on the keys & “Martin Pike” with “Splif J” later joining the group with Sylvia “Xabiso” joining the group after. “Martin” later left to join “Inadiflow” with his Brother & then on to Coca Cola’s “Ghetto Rough”.
I took a break from the front scene, Started an Entertainment Company with “Lynda” & “Nandipha” name “Gu Entertainmnet” specializing in Live events & shows.
On Our first show at the “Valve’ we brought down “Cashless Society” with support from the “Architypes” ”‘X’ the 24th Letter” joined us later. The Live Wirez concept was such a success we got a live spot on UCT Radio to do a 2hr Hip Hop radio Show every Friday. “X” became our on Air Voice. The show ran for a year.
In the mean time the Live stage shows gave lots of MC’s from the Cape Town area a voice & stage to show their skills, Up & coming at the time was “Rattex”, “Driemanskap”, “Unique” with Xolisa & Krits yeSpaza, Eliterat Skills.
“Lynds” then decided to pursue a recording project with “Rattex” who later moved to Pioneer Unit, I remained in support of the two after we closed “Gu Entertainment”.
Coded records from time to time requested input from me on different projects for “Xabiso”, “Supreme” & “Emage”.
At the end of 2008 I officially joint Coded Records to Manage Their Artist. The move would coincide with Mika’s entry into “Coded Records”.
Our first order of Bussines was the Signing of a new Artist from Paarl “Yunique”. As “Mika” would say from that point on ‘Good tings R gwan’.
Our 1st mission being to reorganize & set goals for coded to make a huge impact on the Cape Town & South African Music Scene.
“So stay tune. So U can say U saw from which point the storm Began” My quote.
