A year ago, in the month of June, South African hip hop producer and content creator, Speeka went on a journey to find answers and uncover why one of the most impactful hip hop movements in South Africa was no longer fully active in the culture as it used to be. From that, he told the story on the Slaghuis Joint Elements (2019) documentary.
In April this year, the documentary received a nomination at the New York Hip-Hop Film Festival, for BEST DOCUMENTARY FILM, and has further gone to win the award;
