On Saturday night I went through to Albert Hall in Woodstock to watch Jaak performing at the Max Normal TV show. We’d been at the 7784 launch party in Khayelitsha all day so I was pretty exhausted, but Leon Botha was warming up the set with some classic old skool jams and some tight scratching, which helped give me some energy and get me in the mood.
Jaak, or Jaak ‘Paarl’ as he was introduced by Waddy, absolutely tore up the set and worked the crowd into a frenzy with some banging jams including How We Roll. I was incredibly impressed by Jaak’s stage craft - one of the tightest MC performances that I’ve seen in a while.
We took a breather outside while Die Vegas and Parow Show did their thing, then came back to check out Waddy, Yo-Landi and Neon Don do their thing. If you’ve never been to a Max Normal TV show you’ve really missed out. It’s pure, deranged entertainment.
