All kings arise from underground it seems and when it has a Namibian flavour, then it is lekker because… local is lekker! Awaiting to take flight, the new generation of hip-hop known as trap, has made its way to Nambian producers.

Local trap producer known to many as Chris, real name Euvanus Hanse, was born in Mariental south of Windhoek.

“I grew up with both my parents and all my siblings so I count myself lucky. However, I didn't have the privilege to really get into and develop this things I had passion for as a young man due to circumstances, but, I already knew where my heart was and yes, my heart was in the art of music,” said Hanse.

He started writing and rapping lyrics in 2008 at the age of ten and he progressed to making beats in 2012. Hanse has been mastering music ever since.

“I want to unite all artists, both established and upcoming, to inspire and motivate our youth to develop themselves towards a brighter future in the music industry,” said Hanse.

As far as collaborations go, the trap artist worked with Mesa Haraseb, known as M. O. C. Lincol, who is his cousin and has been his motivation since day one. Hanse says the music is based on Link Vision Entertainment, a movement which makes music that inspires, motivates and guides the youth to unite and fight against negativity and stand together for a positive and bright future.

Hanse has not officially released any of his music. It is not available yet due to various delays but, it is in the process and soon, the public will have to access his music. He will drop the release date on social media.

“We host shows and we do recordings and we're also looking forward to tours as well. All of that however, can only be achieved with financial stability, so we're still looking for potential investors that can help Link Vision Entertainment achieve that dream”, said Hanse.

“First of all I would like to thank God Almighty for blessing me with this opportunity. I want to thank my mother and father, my siblings and everyone that believed or didn't believe in me... I thank y'all for all the energy I received because it made me who I am today,” said Hanse

The gift of music is something that takes control of the mind body and soul and is one of the elements of communication in a deeper dimension. My heart beats to the freedom of your soul.
