DriemanskapIn 2001, a Cape Town township - Gugulethu gave birth to a trio and it was called Driemanskap. In no time they took over by rhyming in their mother tongue, isiXhosa. A rhyme dialect labeled Spaza (vernacular). This trio has shared stages with Cape Town's biggest underground crews such as Ben Sharpa, Archetypes and Writes block and many more. They also pride themselves in sharing stages with some of Mzantsi's big time muso's such as Simphiwe Dana, Pitch Black Afro, Prokid, Ntando, Ready D and Stompie Mavi. In 2005 this crew was previlage to take part in the Baobab festival sharing stage with the one of the biggest New York hip-hop crew Dead Prez debating some social issues through the lyrics that they spit. They also took part in the 2006 Tri-continental festival, warming up the stage for one the New York's illest freestyler Wordsworth, Jonzi D from the UK and Ben Sharpa from S.A. They also did a sound track for a SABC 2 talk show Precious's show and their hit track "Itsho Into " was used in an international movie called Sizwe. They have released a mixtape called Battle of Gugulethu featuring crews like Ill Literate Skill and Driemanskap, Planet Earth, Lungelo and Quantam on the production. They are labeled as the spaza gods in Cape Town while Joburg and the Eastern Cape go mad about them. They have been performing around S.A in huge Festivals such Grahamstown festival, Fire on the Mountain, Cape Town festival and many more. The name Driemanskap spreading all over the S.A hip-hop industry even though they still underground, and this crew consist of the following MC..s: ?

Elethu (Mdeza) AKA "Elnino"

A mic murderer, a vicious battle cat when it comes to cyphers. Also known as the "Lyrical Ngwevu", this pint-sized lyrical giant confronts social issues at face level with his confrontational rhyme style that leave audiences in awe.

Mabhuti (Ma-B) AKA "Bad Luck"

Isiqalekiso Sebhadi is what he..s known by on the mic. Imagination is his resource in construction his rhyme pieces. Battling raps constantly flow on this MC's mind.

Dlambulo (Dla) AKA "Fullstop the Lastborn"

This is and always has been the Full-Stop to the "Drie click" of the Manskap family.
A conceptual type of Mcee that's highly influenced by creativity, artisticaly flexing styles from concious to non, "Streetly". The word "Idea" rings a bell 24/7-365 in this cat'z mind, now imagine that ! 'Perception' sums him up.
