Information

Yang Kaveli is a Nyeri-Nairobi based rap group, the group also ventures out to business where its members explore windows of opportunity in the business world. YnK is the group’s name short form. YnK resembles the Y2K Bug and since the group claims to cause brain jams on its fan like the Y2K bug in computers during the end of the last millennium. Yang Kaveli members have the letters “er” in their names, this is the YnK style. Majority of the members listen to 2pac and the Outlawz. Some members of YnK also listen to alternative rock. The group is against the new skul of rapping and it seeks to take the music world to greater heights with its smooth rymes.

The group’s logo is the Mic and Gun since it claims to coup the music world with the new style of rapping and flowetric rhymes. The S2pid hip hop style was invented by the Thugster in a free styling session and quickly gained popularity among fans. The Swahilfoko also was invented by Yang Kaveli members in a free styling session, the subgenre involves rapping Swahili rymes with strong alliterations and allusions. Also the Ole Yo rap style involves rapping rymes with an African tinge. The rymes maybe in any African language but mainly kikuyu. Currently the group is underground based but will make its cameo appearance in 2012.
