C’est avec une grande tristesse que nous avons appris hier la mort de notre ami Ben Sharpa. Figure incontournable du Hip Hop sud-africain, Ben était un artiste emblématique de Jarring Effects, que ce soit au travers de ses productions solo, ou des nombreux projets auxquels il a collaboré. Vétéran de la scène underground de Cape Town, Kgotso Semela s’est imposé hors des frontières de son pays dès sa première apparition, sa participation à la compilation Cape Town Beats en 2007. Toutes nos pensées vont à sa famille et à ses proches. Rest in eternal peace Kgotso!

Entre l’héritage classique du Hip-hop US et le terrain de jeu accidenté du grime UK, le rappeur producteur a toujours vécu ses textes conscients voire illuminés, et conçu sa musique et sa représentation comme un sit in ou un spectacle plus que comme de simples concerts. Véritable electron libre, son style oscillait entre Hip-hop, Grime, Dubstep et Dub.

Les trois albums et la centaine de dates européennes de l’artiste ont toujours suscité l’enthousiasme tant médiatique que populaire. Les plus grands festivals européens (Sziget, Glastonbury, Dour, Paléo, Printemps de Bourges) et les salles de toute l’Europe ont eu l’occasion de le programmer, et nombre de médias reconnus (Telerama, RFI, Mouv’, Trax, Tsugi…) parlaient de lui avec entrain, chacun trouvant dans le rappeur une profondeur artistique intrigante. Jamais complètement dancefloor, jamais laborieusement engagé, Ben Sharpa proposait un mix inédit et personnel.
