Kid X opens up about how K.O encouraged him to rap in vernac
In other music news, Briefly News reported that Kid X has revealed that K.O encouraged him to rap in his mother tongue back then when he was still spitting bars in English. The rapper told MacG in a recent interview that K.O asked him to pen a rap verse in vernac before he signed him to his former record label Cashtime Records.
The star opened up about how he had to audition at a parking lot outside SABC. He shared that K.O was on his way to an interview on Metro FM when he picked him up. When they got to the parking lot, K.O then asked Kid X to drop the vernac verse he had asked him to prepare.
Kid X heard that he passed the test a few minutes later during K.O's interview with Tbo Touch, according to SAHipHopMag. Kid X and K.O went on to produce one of the biggest songs in SA hip-hop. Their track Caracara was on high rotation on radio and TV. It even earned a couple of nominations in the Mzansi music industry.
