Skwatta Kamp
♫ Wednesday, January 12th, 2011Skwatta Kamp refuses to apologise for not making Kwaito, Afro-pop and House albums even though they are from Johannesburg, the capital of those genres. With their fifth official album aptly named “Bak On Kampus”, it is clear that they are still not relenting in their stance.
After a year’s break made up of solo albums and break up rumours, Skwatta Kamp returns with a brand new album which is a breath of fresh air. Sometimes, meaning exists within a name, but like many prophecies may be taken lightly by the unenlightened. The group name Skwatta Kamp says it all
pronounced Skwa-tah Camp); the group’s name is derived from the term Squatter Camp which are shantytowns littered around South Africa’s open landscapes. The people who live in these informal settlements are seen as outcasts and a nuisance. This was the situation in the music industry that Skwatta Kamp found themselves in a few years back, where
their form of music was not seen as an art form but a passing fad not worth mentioning in high regard.
