This week on Sludge Underground @Thorns_Of_Sludge shares his experience at Misty Waters Music Festival.

This festival was nothing short of a love letter to artist, festival goers, anda most importantly music lovers. Hired along as a second shooter he was front and center for all 27 bands who played seeing familiar faces but also a ton of new ones. This was one of the most diverse lineups imaginable from artists within Indie, electronic, blues, rock, punk to almost everything inbetween.

Here's a breakdown of almost everything Marcel experienced, from meeting fans of the channel to Fokofpolisiekar's frontman conveying his thoughts on our videos, to the overall experience of a festival Sludge Underground will definitely be returning to.

This is the story of one of South Africa's most promising hip-hop artists, filmed at the places that made him.

We start at PEGG's high school, where he found hip-hop, fell in love with drama, and met the late Simon of PosterBoy. We end off at Dropkick Murphy's, the venue where he won an open mic that led to a Cotton Fest mixtape feature and a life-changing performance.

PEGG breaks down:

• Why Glenwood's brotherhood shaped him
  
  
• The Alt vs Hip-Hop venue problem in Durban
  
  
• What makes a lyricist (MF DOOM style)
  
  
• Working with Luukhanyo, Risky T, Mash Beats, and more
  
  
• Why Durban needs its own Cotton Fest or Back to the City
  
  

Filmed on location at Glenwood High School and Dropkick Murphy's, Durban.

Crew: Rowan Deysel
Producer: Nasiphi Zwane
