‘A play on words’: Nasty C and Tellaman release joint album ‘T’s & C’s Apply’
The pair said the album was recorded over more than a year.
Durban-based hip hop artists Nasty C and Tellaman have collaborated on a new album called T’s & C’s Apply. The project is a fusion of hip hop, R&B, and African influences. According to the duo, the album took shape from working on their previous joint track "Big Timing" for Nasty C's FREE project. Tellaman explained that they realized the potential for a full album during those sessions.
After recording over a year, primarily in Johannesburg, the album features contributions from Oxlade, Blxckie, Lusanda, CrownedYung, and Ayanda MVP. Nasty C emphasized that the album allowed them to showcase their unique talents while exploring various sounds. Tellaman highlighted that their individual styles blend hip hop with R&B, featuring melodic flows, hooks, storytelling, and raw bar verses.
The title T’s & C’s Apply is a clever play on the artists' names, with "T" representing Tellaman and "C" standing for Nasty C. Nasty C explained that it serves as an invitation and an expression of their creative freedom, breaking down the rules that people impose on themselves. They aim to redefine the way people view R&B and encourage musicians to explore genre boundaries.
