The Black Billionaire CEO says that it is wise praising Slap Dee when he is still alive.

“For any Person to hold it down for years and still remain relevant means a whole lot…Here are your flowers whilst you are still Alive…you have done a lot for the hip hop culture and Zambian Music generally, you definitely deserve all the praise. I wish you more wins,” he wrote on Facebook.

Slap Dee’s musical career started way back when he was in high school. He spewed lyrics and won praises from his peers. It was in 2006 when he ventured into music professionally. His first hip hop song titled ‘Asembe Isebenza’ did magic for him in his early career.

It was a key motivator as it earned him the status of the godfather of Zambian hip hop. After this, he released other big hits such as ‘So Che’, ‘Black and white’, ‘True Story’ among others.

Around 2009, he was swimming in fame and he continued with his studio projects which churned out big hits, thereby affirming to Zambians that he was the next big hip-hop artiste in the country.

Years later, he founded XYZ Entertainment and continued with his dominance while nurturing young talents.
