The Sobering Podcast S07E05 (Live from the beach, RIP Costa Titch & New Music chats)

Live from the beach, coming to you live with some sand between our toes courtesy of the good people at SA Tourism and Sho’t Left. We had such a great time that we had to slot in some time to bring you this quick episode to send our condolences to Costa Titch’s family, loved ones, fans and the whole SA music scene at large. We also delved into some new projects and a couple of things happening in and around the SA Hip Hop. It’s a quick one, don’t be mad we’ll back with a generous portion sized episode soon. Sober soldiers let’s go! 🫡
