WATCH: Moz Kidd drops highly anticipated debut mixtape

JOBURG musician Hogan Antia, popularly known as Moz Kidd, has released his highly anticipated mixtape, titled What Were You Doing At 19?

This 19-year-old law student pushes the boundaries yet again by debuting his mixtape after the highly successful release of his hit single, I Wanna Know featuring Riky Rick earlier this year.

Moz Kidd’s latest is a 14-track offering that covers the genres of hip-hop, rap and R&B. It features Riky Rick, Blaze & DJ Slick and is a selection of music that Moz Kidd personally put together from a catalogue of over 40 songs that he has recorded with his producer, ReggieBeatz.

Moz Kidd explained, “I decided to release a full body of work in the form of a mixtape because I started feeling that the singles I had released to date had ‘boxed’ me in.

“I would usually pick a single based on which song I think people will like the most, or let me rather say, which song they could ‘groove’ to the most. What happens then is all the singles end up sounding similar but with this project, I decided just to be myself and record what I like and relate to how I was feeling at the moment. I loved that.”

Antia said he chose music because it had always been a hidden passion for many years of his life, but he was glad to be sharing his talent with the rest of the world. He is proving that he is a rising artist to watch out for and will definitely be a force to be reckoned with in the music industry.

This unsigned artist from Nelspruit, Mpumalanga, now lives and studies in Johannesburg, and is paving the way for other young musicians who only dream of one day collaborating with artists such as Ricky Rick whom he drew influence from growing up.
