Who'd have ever thought the day would come that the lead singer of the band, F*k*fpolisiekar, would be having tea parties in the garden?

That day, however, has come.

Carl Wastie called up Francois van Coke on the Kfm Top40 on Sat, 28 Mar 2020 to see how lockdown was treating him - and it turns out, it's being doing the Afrikaans musician really good, as it has given him the chance to bond even closer with the family - particularly his young daughter, who seems to have her dad in-check as she's gotten him making masks, having tea parties with her, and more.

There’s a young Cape Town artist that you may have seen on season 14 of Idols SA – where he made it into the top 5, just 2 years ago. His name is Niyaaz.

He joined Carl Wastie on the Kfm Top 40 on Saturday, 21 March 2020, for an EXCLUSIVE first-time play of his new single, ‘Don’t Need It’… and don’t let the name fool you: you do need it on your chart!

From the team that brought you ‘Cold Shoulder’ comes another track called ’95 Skyline’.

On Saturday, 21 March 2020, Carl Wastie caught up with Sketchy Bongo, who has been cooking in his kitchen – and he’s brought in the Chaplin bros, aka Locnville, on this one this track that just makes you feel less stressed and more chilled.

Carl spoke to Sketchy about what he's up to in a COVID-19 world, where most gigs are now cancelled, as well as the new track - which had its music video drop the day prior... oddly enough, not featuring a 95 Skyline, because, well, it wasn't a sexy enough car for the shoot!
