SPOTLIGHT: Smac, the gifted lyricist who’s turning heads on Instagram

Some call him a rap prodigy but he says music never crossed his mind until his adolescent years. 
He was born Saminu Machunga but you can call him Smac — and his flows, he says, are “sweeter than a kit-kat”.
Who is Smac?
“A senior of mine called me and said ‘I sound like a rapper’. He too was a rapper and he sort of took me under his wing and started writing lines for me to rap and the rest is history,” said Smac, one of the hottest young rappers on the scene.
The rapper — whose social media profile has been on a steady ascent since he started putting out rehashed rap versions of popular songs — says his parents are his biggest supporters.
“My parents have been overly supportive of my music even through the times I was slacking in school and even though they probably don’t get what I’m rapping half of the time. I remember the first time my mum saw me perform at our high school Christmas Carol in my SS2. She was so proud and excited, that made me happy.”
