It’s been a while we heard from female rapper, Sasha P until she returned a few hours ago with a cover of ‘The Box’ off MI Abaga’s last mixtape ‘Illegal Music 3’.

Explaining why she decided to jump on the record and do a cover, Sasha says;

When MI Abaga dropped Illegal Music III, I was excited! There is something special about music you are not trying to sell- It gives you the freedom to do inspired music!’

‘There is a certain type of magic that inevitably happens. Anyway- I listened to every single song and “The Box” jumped out at me. For the first time I heard about TAY (Brilliant artist by the way) and I felt the butterflies I used to feel 15 years ago anytime I got excited about a record- You see…. I LOVE Hip Hop!’

‘I remembered the first time I met Eldee at Trybe Records and he asked me to freestyle, I told him I dont freestyle but I do Free-Write! This was me ‘Free writing’!’
