Sprite Uncontainable is a dynamic Sprite hip-hop talent search programme which launched on 18 April 2012. Well-known New York based rapper and legendary hip-hop producer Talib Kweli, together with a panel of judges, will scout for South Africa’s most outspoken and uncontainable talent in dance, emceeing and graffiti.
“Globally, Sprite has played a significant role in the hip-hop space. This year, South African hip-hop communities will be given the opportunity to experience a dynamic and exciting programme by showcasing their talent and standing a chance to win an exclusive hip-hop experience with Talib Kweli,” says Hlukani Rikhotso, Sprite Brand Manager.
The hip-hop community will have an opportunity to boldly step-up to the hip-hop plate and unleash their talent through the Sprite Uncontainable Hip-Hop talent search. The participants will be judged by a panel consisting of industry executives in the hip-hop industry: Mernoly Simba from Masters of Rhythm, Falko the renowned graffiti artist and Reason, the award-winning rapper. The public will also have the opportunity to vote for their favourite Sprite Uncontainable winners.
The Sprite Uncontainable Hip-Hop talent search will unfold in three phases: The national Sprite Mobile Studio experience (23 April – 23 June), Rooftop Experience (14 July – 28 July) – in Durban, Cape Town and Johannesburg and Main Event in Johannesburg (01 September).
