Biography
Spit Bars Music, SBM, was established by Khathutshelo Singo (aka Sleeky Junior) in his second year at varsity, in 2016. When it was established, it was done so with the help of Shawn Langa, who at the time was responsible for publishing Sleeky Junior’s music and that of his affiliates, iMght.
Upon establishment, SBM immediately ventured to sign iMght (who went by Just Colin) at the time, and Hsteria who were the main producers of Sleeky Junior’s music. Upon their signing onto SBM, Hsteria (Hulisani Mannde) was made Head A&R and iMght was made the Head of Sound Design, positions they occupy to this day (2021
The main idea was not just to have a distributor for Sleeky’s music that will impose as little creative control as possible, but to also spread a different breath of musical renditions to people’s ears all over the world. With this in mind, SBM’s establishment meant the birth of a breed of record labels that allows artists to experiment with all elements of music.
In its first year of operating (from 01 Jan 2017), the label oversaw the releases of Sleeky Junior’s “Sketches: A DSI Prelude” and “What Do You Call This EP?” respectively, which were met with decent receptions from listeners. This was followed up by the release of “Walk With Me” by iMght which featured a video for the title song was aired on OneGospel during the same year.
The roster witnessed an addition to its numbers when Sleeky Junior and Hsteria scouted Psychatic, Optimistik and Ma.iige who all come from the same home town, Makhado, as the label heads.
Our Power lies in our willingness and ability to collaborate.
