I think they broke up 2 years ago. I think Shaheen X quit the group to work for Bush FM in Cape Town. Ishmael (Esmile) now does gospel-Kwaito. DJ Ready D is now DJing for a new crew ,Brasse Vannie Kaap (Afrikaans Hip-Hop!). I dont know what happened to Mark and Ramone.

Mark sadly died in a car accident earlier this year...
Don't know what's new with Ready D exactly but he is still in music involved in all kinds of projects. Shaheen is actually studying at university now and also involved in different projects.

damn, RIP.

But the last album I heard by them was Getto Code, it was released in 1996 I believe, didn't they release anything after that? And do these Brassie vanne kaap have any albums or a website where I can check it out?

Brasse Vannie Kaap came out in 1997, after the last POC CD came out. They only have 2 CDs released, BVK (1997) and Yskoud (2000). Oneworld.co.za used to sell the first BVK CD but they just sell the lastet one. I want those CDs so baddddd!

Under 'MUZIEK' enter the name of the group and they will send you to some sites with online order, eg. http://www.bol.com
