Mzansi hip-hop heads can get their ears ready for a different dose of the local genre with the emergence of a new rap sensation.
Tiger, a heavyweight in stature and on the mic of his community, is capturing the right attention if his lyrical gymnastics are to be judged.

The caption read:
"Indian rapper from Durban."
The poster gave Tiger, whom not much is known about, a perfect score following the colourful scenes — and bars — delivered in his music video.
It shows the burly rapper going for broke, dressed in a Steph Curry jersey and gracing a basketball court.
He goes for a slam-dunk on his counterparts by dissing them and, as is often the case with testosterone-fuelled spitters, elevates his status when he announces himself as the King among Indian rappers.
Saffas eat up hot bars
After leaving a trail of destruction in his wake, the rapper's X video clocked nearly 400,000 views, 7000 likes, 1600 reposts and 1400 bookmarks within 16 hours of its posting.
Almost 500 responses flooded the mentions as the post mainly hit all the right notes. Briefly News looks at a few of the spiced-up reactions to it.
