12.1 on the come up
By Tshepo Bareetseng
Music is really growing; Young kids from Braamfischerville, South West of Johannesburg are really resolute and have passion for this music thing. 12.1 production, founded by Bruce12.1, is a record label that consists of 8 members, one (1) lady and seven (7) guys.
The group includes; Bruce12.1 who is the founder/ main producer & sound engineer, Kaylash who is on the PR and marketing side of thing, CeeJay & Mac who are a duo, XEE a producer and artist, Steezy Lenyora who is also an artist, Jovizinto who is a tattoo artist and a hook mastermind as well as Zu who is a designer and a photographer.
Bruce12.1 said he will be releasing an EP early 2018. “I’ll be releasing an EP next year, possibly early next year”, said Bruce12.1. He is also growing himself in video editing. “Soon I will be handling the videos for our artists, I am getting better and better at it”, Bruce12.1 added.
Recently, there have been two hit songs on the streets; both produced by Bruce12.1 namely ‘The Recipe’ by XEE ft Mac & CeeJay and ‘Night Off’ by the XXE. 12.1 is working towards prominence, they are laying real hard work and they seem sure about what they are doing and pretty certain about what they want.
CeeJay says that tape will drop sometime this year. “We are planning to drop the tape this year, around September”, said CeeJay. The mix tape will be all about ‘the fast life’. Seems like 12.1 will be working pretty hard making sure they take the industry by storm. It might look like the year 2017 has already ended, but not for 12.1 Production.
The Majestic hit maker, Keneilwe Moyo also known as Kaylash, says she has pulled back from rapping, ‘for now’ at least. “For now I am just wozrking on PR, marketing and events for 12.1, I might come back probably next year in the music side of things”, said Kaylash.
These artists are doing their thing (music) in the backroom, home studio, but the music, one wouldn’t believe it’s recorded at home, the quality, the melodies, the beats, everything original, clean and really sounding upright.
Around September, they are planning to do an event (TrapHouse 3.1). “The event will be about 12.1, we want people to know about us, people from our hood, everyone is invited. There will performances and just more, plenty of entertainment, more information will be out at a later stage”, sad Kaylash. 12.1 Production can be followed on different media platforms such as ;
