L-Tido Salutes Kwesta & Kid X For Their Collaboration On “Contra.” Hip hop heavyweight L-Tido has taken to social media to give flowers where they’re due—this time, to fellow rap veterans Kwesta and Kid X.
In a candid post, L-Tido praised their collaboration on the track “Contra” from Kwesta’s recently released album The Big Bro Theory, calling it “special” and a testament to the power of real hip hop.
“Yo Kwesta, just wanted to let you know what you and Kid X did on this record is special. Nothing like hip hop music,” L-Tido wrote.
“Contra” is already being hailed as a lyrical masterclass, anchored by gritty nostalgia, layered wordplay, and the seamless chemistry between Kwesta and Kid X. The track rekindles the spirit of their Skhanda beginnings while still pushing forward with mature storytelling and evolved flows. L-Tido’s endorsement is no small compliment: it’s a co-sign from one of SA rap’s most respected voices.
Released under Kwesta’s The Big Bro Theory, an album centred around mentorship, authenticity, and street wisdom, “Contra” feels like a nod to old-school hip-hop values—something that’s resonated with listeners and fellow artists alike.
With legends giving flowers in real-time and fans rallying behind the track, “Contra” is shaping up to be more than just a deep cut—it’s a cultural moment.
