<p>N'veigh raps: "I keep telling you that I'm top two/ You need more than your rapper niggas to stop dude/ I'm hot do, shit, I was raised by the gun/ Disrespect me, I promise then you gon' see what my palms do," before throwing a shot at the new era of rappers who rock fanny packs:</p>
<blockquote><em>"And you niggas are so static/ Got fanny-packs and your nigga got cosmetics/ Mamelodi East, I got niggas that cause damage/ Never felt defeat like a nigga with prosthetics"</em></blockquote><p>Ras delivers his verse in French, which means most of us listening from South Africa can only marvel at his delivery.</p><p><div class="preroll-video"></div><ora-player></ora-player></p><p>PdotO's verse is sprinkled with sentimentality as usual, rapping: </p><blockquote><em>"Smoke purps while we call green pastures/ A lot of rappers laugh that they speed past us/ Forgetting it's a marathon, not a sprint"</em></blockquote><p>The hook on "Top 5" is handled by Jay Claude, who is fast becoming the go-to guy for hooks in South Africa hip-hop, after working with the likes of Stilo Magolide, Stogie T, BigStar, DJ Sliqe, DJ Speedsta among others.</p><p>Watch the video for "Top 5" below and stream the song underneath.</p>
