News: Toast & Slessor Turn Up the Heat With Hard Hitting New Joint "2"

Malawian hip-hop just got another moment to talk about - and this time, it's loud, direct, and unapologetic. 

Toast and Slessor have officially joined forces on their new single "2", a collaboration that feels less like a casual link-up and more like a statement. Known individually for their sharp delivery and commanding presence in the local rap scene, the duo step into this record with intent bringing energy, attitude, and purpose.

From the jump, "2" leans into gritty, holds barred hip-hop. Produced by Steve Chriss and Jonstard, the track hits hard with punchy beats that leave space for both artists to assert themselves, while the visuals - directed by David Major - match that intensity with a clean, bold execution.

Beyond the sound, the track's tone is what's sparking conversation. Early reactions suggest "2" isn't just another drop - carries elements of confrontation, with some framing it as a diss aimed at fellow artist IKK. That edge injects a raw, competitive energy, keeping in line with hip-hop's tradition of fiery rivalries.

The creation process itself tells a story of urgency and confidence: posts shared around the release indicate the song was reportedly recorded and shot within the same day. A bold move, but one that underscores the duo's command of the craft.  

For Slessor, who has been steadily building momentum through collaborations and standout releases, "2" is another strong addition to his growing catalogue. Toast, meanwhile, flexes his versatility and presence, proving once again why his name keeps buzzing in conversations across Malawi's urban music circles.    

Together, they strike a balance calculated, yet raw enough to resonate with listeners.

Whether "2" is remembered for its bars, its energy, or the conversations it sparks, one thing is certain: Toast and Slessor didn't come to play; they came to make noise.

And right now the streets are definitely listening.
