Jabulani Tsambo, lovingly known as Hip Hop Pantsula is outchere making major moves. His next one will see him collaborating with an international R&B star.
This would not be the first time the man has mingled with international stars. A few years ago he was in the headlines because of his (pretty pricey) feature with Nas on his album and not forgetting Talib Kweli. Now he’s about to add another collabo onto his belt. This time with R&B crooner Raheem Devaughn.
Yes my brothers and sisters the rumors are true me & my brother @HipHopPantsula_ have agreed to do a album together more details TBA. 🇿🇦 x 🇨🇲 x 🇬🇼 x 🇺🇸

The tweet, which was sent in the morning, might have come as a shock for most but maybe it’s been in the pipelines for a while now. Judging from this mini history lesson this is how his connection with Raheem happened:
This song changed my life. Did a song with @Raheem_DeVaughn b4 knowing who he was. On my flight back 2 SA🇿🇦, played Magnificent & the song came on. Saw it was featuring Raheem. All along the dude from my favourite Jazzy Jeff Song was the same dude I laced a joint with?! 🤯🤯🤯 https://t.co/c3ZvGxXeOV

Then he further confirmed that he’ll be in the neighbourhood so when Raheem’s ready they can begin:
Coming to DC first week of March for 10days. I have the fire to record 3 joints a day. It’s on Family. #Raheem_Jabba_Limited Edition https://t.co/hSTPvkFfKw

Right. It seems like the thing now is to collaborate with overseas artists. First Reason and Swizz Beats, now this? It’s about to get lit. Who else do you think should get the international collabo treatment?
