Jabba X On Being Ahead Of His Time, Understanding Depression & South Africa's Sound

By @Spokenpriestess on 11/09/2018 in Balcony Interview

Okay, real talk? This is by far the hardest post I've ever had to come up with 'cause I honestly don't know where to start. Here goes...

We sit down with the late Jabba X, affectionately known as HHP by his fans worldwide, to talk about his recently dropped EP, Feels Good To Be Back, as well as carving the sound on it. He talks to us about the impact that South African music has had on the world. 

Touching on a more personal conversation, he talks to us about his depression and how he navigated himself through it. Being the music lover that he was, you hear that come through when he talks about his healing relationship with it. It's the most heartbreaking thing to hear him talk about his future plans with regard to his final album, DRUM. A disturbing reminder that life is so fickle. Have a look at our fallen hero's last moments on this earth below;
