  • New Single Release: Umbono Wam

    Our next guest burst onto the hip hop scene for his remix of the breakout single, Mhluzi. The song went onto reach number 1 on 5fm’s The Stir Up’s local top five chart and number 3 on Metro FM’s Absolute five charts. He was nominated for a 2021 SA Hip Hop Award for the Best Remix and the song was recognized on MTV Base’s Freshman Top five playlist.

  • Wellness Corner: sense of self and your romantic relationships

    Love is wonderful thing. This is especially true when you somebody new makes you feel seen, heard and valued. As the dust settles on the honeymoon phase, you find yourself being more accommodating their preferences over yours like adopting some of their hobbies.  While this is a natural part of any relationship, it's important not to lose sight of who we are in a relationship because it can make the experience more fulfilling for both people involved. It's also good for your mental health and spiritual well-being as it can help with restoring self-confidence whilst embracing individuality.

  • Planting the Seeds: unused land and the impact it has on farmers

    Our next guest points to land transfer programmes and unused land being taxed has been the biggest challenge facing farmers. Our guest argues that distributing land is of no value if it does not consider the other factors of production. It goes onto say that many agricultural organizations have made proposals on how new entrants can enter the agricultural environment, provided that these new entrants will accept the responsibility it takes to be able to farm.
