GR8FUL Returns with Explosive New Single “B.O.C (Ball on a Cheque)” Featuring Kulture Gang & Herc Cut the Lights

Unapologetic rising rap star GR8FUL is turning up the heat in South African hip-hop with his latest single, B.O.C (Ball on a Cheque), a gritty trap anthem featuring powerhouse collaborators Kulture Gang and acclaimed producer Herc Cut the Lights. Available on all major digital streaming platforms, and the track is generating buzz for its no-holds-barred energy and genre-pushing collaboration.

Following the success of Gimmicks, GR8FUL cements his place as one of the country’s most electrifying new voices. With B.O.C, he elevates his sound and message — stepping into a zone of unapologetic swagger, ambition, and authenticity. “B.O.C, ‘Ball on a Cheque,’ is about moving with confidence, claiming what’s yours, unapologetically,” says GR8FUL.

The track marks a powerful collaboration with Kulture Gang, the Afrikaans rap outfit behind street anthems like Ciko, Bodies, and Ghetto Boi. Known for their raw lyrical style and no-nonsense delivery, Kulture Gang brings a visceral edge to the song, creating undeniable chemistry with GR8FUL’s intense cadence.

Adding further fire is Herc Cut the Lights, one of the country’s top-tier trap producers. With booming 808s, surgical hi-hats, and Herc’s signature bounce, B.O.C is a masterclass in production.

“Working with Herc is always special because he gets the sound and the vision right every time,”.

GR8FUL explains

Lyrically aggressive and musically unrelenting, B.O.C is a declaration of intent. It’s GR8FUL’s bold answer to the critics, proving his artistic range and his ability to command attention without gimmicks. The track builds on the momentum of Gimmicks, which resonated widely and established his rep as a fearless storyteller with unmatched delivery.

For Afrikaans hip-hop, Kulture Gang’s involvement signals a significant moment of crossover, showcasing how the local scene is evolving into a melting pot of styles and influences.

B.O.C (Ball on a Cheque) also serves as the lead single from GR8FUL’s forthcoming EP, due later this year — a project that promises more high-impact collaborations, raw lyricism, and street-tested soundscapes.

Whether you’re a fan of trap, conscious rap, or straight-up street anthems, B.O.C delivers with the kind of energy that doesn’t just demand a listen — it commands it.

Stream B.O.C on all major digital platforms.
