Hosted by Stogie T

BarFest returns with its fourth edition featuring the ever versatile K1 spitta Reason Alakine, cosmic genre bending maverick Okmalumkoolkat and one of the most exciting young mics in the game Tyson Sybateli. BarFest focuses on presenting to an intimate but passionate audience the all too often forgotten skill of mcing. We showcase the future of the skill and the legends that have charted a course of lyrics prowess.

BarFest is a celebration of hip hop's next generation of lyrical giants. The event showcases young rappers pushing the boundaries of storytelling, wordplay, and social commentary. Our mission is to provide a platform for emerging artists to share their unique voices and perspectives, while honouring the legacy of hip hop's rich lyrical tradition. 

This series is quickly becoming a vital part of the cultural landscape giving audiences a once in a lifetime experience with some of the most beloved rappers in South Africa and the future of the game.
