Who are they indeed – lol, judging by some of the names that I do recognize seems they might be worth knowing. Hype Awards must be televised or nationalized if you prefer.

LOL @ Ms Brown Shuga, As I was reading, I am wondering uba you didn’t make a mistake na. I had to re-read again and I thought; HYPE. What is that, anyway?
Dr_MashobaDieta on Tue, 16th Feb 2010 8:41 am
eish ladies @least if you bought a copy of Hype magazine u would have known this people cos there is always a disk of most of this underground rappers
FYI. there was an SMS number in the magazine for people to vote
B.S u didn’t highlight/indicate the winner for BEST GROUP???

bonangmubishame on Tue, 16th Feb 2010 9:37 am
They all underground niggers, especially that Abdus! I HATE HIM SO MUCH!!!! He has issues GALORE and has SUCH an ego. His music is good, but yerrrr the niger has such an ego for an UNDERGROUND musician!!! lets be real now, only Durban based folk and dedicated HYPE Mag readers even know him!

These awardz indeed r a waste of time.id advise the peeps behind hype to save their money and energy qha.
Malibongwe on Tue, 16th Feb 2010 7:24 pm
Lol… I don’t know a bulk of the people that were nominated/won, befittingly so. I don’t care about these awards nor the magazine for that matter. I tried reading a couple of issues, it’s DEFINITELY a niche-market magazine. I mean, I enjoy hip-hop and all but ayi, that’s just 2much. Without sounding mean, I’d like to say congrats to the winners.. whoever yall are!
NiccY on Wed, 17th Feb 2010 10:15 am
Teargas should have won the best group category – these boys r awesome and they dress nice too.
jellie on Wed, 17th Feb 2010 8:35 pm

modise on Wed, 17th Feb 2010 9:19 pm
guys, these awards are not a waste of time, sometimes we need to realise we are not the intended target and move on. They serve a particular purpose in the sa hip hop scene.
