Priddy Ugly Reflects On Growth And Gratitude Following His JR’s Feel Good Live Session. Priddy Ugly is a name synonymous with grit and lyrical artistry in the South African music scene, recently took the stage for a milestone performance at the renowned Feel Good Live Sessions.

Known for his poetic introspection and fearless approach to hip-hop, the rapper shared heartfelt reflections about the experience that left fans and peers alike inspired. “You know when you feel like you’re in a room filled with great musicians but you still feel like a newcomer? Like, yoh, man, I still have so much to learn,” Priddy Ugly confessed, his humility cutting through the usual bravado of the genre.

The artist whose career spans over 17 years, admitted that this was his first time performing with a professional live band—a poignant moment of growth despite his seasoned tenure. The Feel Good Live Sessions are celebrated for their stripped-down, intimate format that allows artists to showcase their craft in its rawest, most authentic form. For Priddy Ugly, the setup was transformative. “I’m used to performing with a backtrack, you know, in a club setting. But this kind of setup allows you to strip down the music and connect with the people,” he said.

The rapper described the experience as humbling and inspiring, a far cry from complacency despite his long career. “Even though my career has spanned so long, I’m like, no, man, there’s still so much more I can do. So much improvement I still need to make—not in a bad way, just inspiring,” he shared.

Priddy Ugly’s comments also reflected a deep appreciation for the artistry around him. “It’s like being surrounded by great musicians makes you want to elevate yourself,” he explained, underscoring the communal spirit of the Feel Good Live Sessions.
