1.BLK JKS, full name known as
“The Black Jacks” are a rock band from Johannesburg South Africa however I’d
like to say that they are a very special “Rock band” that compromises of all
music genre elements, whether its Kwaito beats and Hard Core Punk Guitars with
very smooth lyrics. Either way they are a special band with a special kind of
music. There are four members of the
band and they are from East Rand and Soweto.
In 2007 they started releasing
their music internationally with a 10-inch vinyl EP. They linked up with
producer “Diplo” and shortly after they were secretly signed by American rock
label secretly Canadian. This led to the release of an EP, a full-length album,
an international tour and a lot of media attention from the likes of Fader
magazine. In 2010 the band did collaboration with Dj Tiesto and performed at
the opening concert for the 2010 World Cup in Johannesburg.
