Diaspora is a body of work that explores the different facets of township life by one of South African hip-hop’s most celebrated street rappers who hails from the Klerksdorp township Kanana, which is also known as Maglera. “The real gangsters don’t rap,” Maglera Doe Boy says, “but the closest to them is their little brothers who are in the game, and actually partook in some of these illegal things. And I think it’s also a lesson because when you hear most of this music, we’re telling li’l dudes not to do it. We’re saying, ‘This is how we found our way out of it, instead of existing in it.’”
