Who/What is---Clara-T---
Clara-T (born Clara Tshepiso Moloi, 27 March 1994) is a Hip-Hop artist based in KwaZulu- Natal, Durban. Clara-T‘s music can be defined as the quintessence of the True School of Hip-Hop blending together contemporary sounds with the combined lyricism of the Old and New School.
What is---Clara-T---all about?
Clara-T began writing rhymes in high school at 15. Her first rhyme was born out of an assignment she had been given at school. The experience of delivering the rap was what set in motion her love for Hip-Hop and writing. She continued writing and later performed again at open mic sessions. In the year 2011, at 17, Clara-T was introduced to members of a crew called RandHustle, a local Rap crew from Sydenham Heights. She became a member of the group that year and had her first taste of stepping into a booth to record a song with the crew. She then featured on the crew’s mixtape and made her debut into the Hip-Hop community of Durban.
The Future For---Clara-T---
With the Hip Hop industry becoming more accommodating of female MC's, there is definitely a space for Clara-T to flourish in the culture. With good lyrical content and a visible understanding of music as a craft, the artist has the necessary skill set to make a name for herself within the game.
