Kwesta


Senzo ‘KWESTA’ Vilakazi was born 11 August 1988 to school teacher Thabsile Vilakazi, on the East Rand of Johannesburg. It was during his high school days at J.G. Strydom where the dream of becoming a rap superstar began, he was a constant irritation to his teachers for writing verses and poems during lessons but as time went on, the very same teachers started asking KWESTA to give examples of his writing by reciting whatever “student friendly” verse or poem he had for the class.

CRYSTAL PARK Launch Event


8 Jul 2011 - 19:00
9 Jul 2011 - 02:00

It's the moment you've all been waiting for...

CRYSTAL PARK was formed by former members of popular JHB-based Dirty Rock n' Roll outfit, The Hellphones after their departure from the SA Music Scene in 2010. Members Tenn Elliot, Joe Cole and Kev Hall had a long-standing relationship with Country Music, and felt there was a massive gap for this kind of music.
