Cb Slimes

Cb Slimes is a rising hip hop trio from the heart of Botswana, bringing a fresh, authentic voice to the Southern African music scene. Formed in Gaborone in 2019, the group blends traditional Setswana and English rhythms with hard-hitting 808s and sharp lyrical storytelling — creating a sound that’s both proudly local and globally appealing.

Comprising Calvin Jmx, King Zilla, and Lil Ferg, Cb Slimes represents a new generation of artists redefining what it means to be African in the hip hop world. Each member brings a unique flair: King Zilla is the punchline master, Calvin Jmx adds melodic hooks with an Afro-trap twist, and Lil Ferg delivers conscious bars rooted in culture and street wisdom.

Their debut E.P "B3gining Of A N3w Dawn" dropped in early 2024 and quickly made waves on YouTube (with tracks like "AIN'T SWITCHING SIDES, 200 A WRAITH, & GMT LIFERS, " ) and digital platforms, earning them a growing fan base across the region. With electric live performances and a message rooted in ambition, identity, and unity, Cb Slimes is poised to become one of Botswana’s most influential musical exports.

This is just the beginning — Botswana’s next big thing has arrived.
