"Demoiselle en detresse"..Pencil Damsil in distress

The paranormally paranoid pencil damsil in distress, is in essence a contemporary re-telling of the traditional melodrama under its title. This is the main concept around a new project that I plan to go into. A personal narration of life outside the conventional spheres.


This whole concept was reason enough to re-think the positionality from which the character of Nuhtkays speaks from, the voice I express the self from, and all of the in between. This was the opportunity for me to re-think those elements and re-look at what I serve on my plate to the few who support and follow the nut through my local hustle.


I am only getting to truly understand Nutcase as that subliminal madness that we all have but don't always acknowledge is there. The character of nuhtkays herself is a completely lunatic one for being the unconventional broken girl in a so-called mans world. she's the reality of a psychologically damaging society, and the product of such a society in physical materiality..people like her are the epitome of abnormal insecurity issues, self mutilative, submissively violent crack heads with a dark side that is nothing like the average father issues girl type..she’s like that lab experiment gone wrong!
Messed up in every way and in every form, this is the character whose voice I take up when I write and when I produce anything creative.



Out of all of this, I've learnt about a true freedom from structure, but then again that is another topic for another day all together.
I no longer think that it is a negative thing that females get to have it tougher than males do in this thing. It adds a salt of exclusive value to all the 'sistaz' who have cracked it and those deserving more respect than the average male emcee. Its power politics that eventually play into the females hands when percieved outside dominant ideologies of gender, it characterises so many different things It would take a whole chapter to unravel.


this is simply where i'd like to come out about certain issues and what the next project is about, shedding light on certain aspects of what i do and basically what is in store for you in the next project. and the way forward from there.


hip hop is always going to be a part of who I am. Even if i decide to go into other career fields later on in my life and don't pursue hip hop as a career...the hip hop in me won't stop. It won't change; it will carry on growing within those conditions. It is still growing right now and under the tough conditions of a university degree schedule, I'm still keeping true to it and it is still a large part of my language and my interaction with others and those around me. It will always be that me, and i will always love it. coz self-evolution is the reason I am still hip hop even today....


That obsessive mathafucka that you'v got nothing on!


With all of that said and out in the open, I felt it necessary to whip up a short introduction video on who the hell Subliminal Nuhtkays really is and what place she takes up in our local and south african hip hop and all that other good stuff! This video fed off a whole lot from the short documentary me and Breeh attempted to undertake, we used some of the footage from there into this small project and with it also prepared a complimentary vlog that goes hand in hand with the actual intro vid. The vlog on the other hand is more like a bouncer since in it I'm simply discussing plans of a tape and all of the current progress and simply where to from here, creatively.

With the wi-fi here on campus taking hella long to load I'm sure to provide the links to the two videos later on twitter and on facebook, didn't think they would load for sooo long!!

you can hala at ur nut on twitter:
@Nuhtkayz 

don't worry about pfb's I certainly follow all my peoples back!!

if i speak in code than i will speak in that code until those who are meant to hear  that code can finally hear it!  as a voice though i speak for that hidden female shit that nobody wants to talk about, that obsessive, supressed desires and opressed selves and supposed weaknesses and the resulting rebel lunatic that comes out of all of that jazz.


Still on that lyrical grind.
The journey still continues!!

love and kiff vibes sent to you.
Cheerz!!
