Brasse Vannie Kaap
Made in South Africa
Brasse Vannie Kaap is a documentary about the iconic, game-changing 90s group who helped make hip hop South African. Stream now on Showmax.
Brasse Vannie Kaap’s rappers, scratchers and breakdancers reflect on the group’s remarkable journey from the Cape Flats to Pukkelpop in Belgium – a rise that was cut short by the untimely death of their frontman, Mr Fat, aka Ashley Titus, who passed away in 2007 aged just 36.
YoungstaCPT and Jack Parow credit the group with inspiring their careers, while the who’s who of the Afrikaans entertainment industry line up to pay tribute to their undeniable impact, from David Isaacs and Oscar Petersen of Joe Barber fame to Early B and Karen Zoid to Kurt Darren and Valiant Swart.
Written and directed by Lauren Scholtz, Brasse Vannie Kaap ends with Ready D and DJ Azuhl getting the group back together for an intimate tribute show at Youngblood Africa in honour of Mr Fat.
