South African Trap/Rap Trio 3Plug drop their music video for ‘Bheki Cele’ – A song of solidarity
During the COVID-19 Lockdown the Minister of Police Bheki Cele has been making headlines for his controversial statements. 3PLUG has drawn inspiration from the minister from their new single #BhekiCele. Following the public outcry that the alcohol ban should be lifted – the Hip hop trio “3Plug” decided to join the masses in solidarity.
The lockdown has taken its toll on the country’s economy with the alcohol and entertainment industries being the hardest hit, the alcohol industry lost R18 Billion in revenue and left many without an income, this single is in solidarity with those who have lost their livelihoods begging the minister to lift the ban so that jobs can be saved.

The single was produced within an hour under strict lockdown regulations, “Fistola sent us the beat while he was in Sandton working on NoMoozlie’s EP, within an hour the whole song was recorded” said Uncle Nero one of 3Plug’s members.
The music video was shot and directed by Kabelo Selekolo and was a basic performance located in Ivory Park, Midrand.
