I can't remember if there was a Kwaito thread on the old-ILM. If there was, I'm guessing it wasn't that long.
In any case, I've yet to find much helpful writing or info on Kwaito, the cross between hip-hop and house from South Africa. There have been articles in the NY Times and Time on it, but from a social perspective rather than from one of much use to a music conoisseur. A handful of compilations have been made available in the US and Europe, but otherwise it's difficult to figure out where to look. So for someone who doesn't live in South Africa, what are some artists or releases to look for (and practical ways of finding this stuff)?
