DJ Tira just dropped the news that FACT Durban Rocks is getting sold off after this year's New Year's bash. The Afrotainment head honcho said his crew is stepping away from the event after organizing 30 editions since 2011, and the brand hits the market next year. He blamed the city's midnight shutdown rules for making things complicated, saying his team had been watching how officials handled the curfew situation before pulling the trigger on this decision.
The final party goes down on New Year's Eve with a 2 pm to 2 am window instead of their usual 6 pm to 6 am marathon sessions. Tira gave shoutouts to everyone who supported the brand through the years, from sponsors like SAB and Schweppes to the fans who showed up regardless of...
Anele Zondo clapped back at trolls after an old makeup picture blew up on X and turned into a roast session that lasted for days. The actress and rapper decided to flip the script by posting a full glam transformation video showing her getting dolled up from start to finish.
The best part was when her makeup artist pulled back curtains made from screenshots of people dragging her, and she appeared looking completely different and unbothered. She captioned the whole thing with a shoutout to herself and the beauty team that helped with the makeover.
The response got people talking again, but this time she controlled the narrative instead of just taking hits from random accounts. Some folks respected the energy while others kept the...
Emtee dropped DIY 3 Deluxe and noticed Nota has been completely quiet about it, which is weird because the music exec usually runs his mouth about everything the rapper puts out. The Hustla posted that he was chilling and waiting for commentary that never came, and he said he is still standing regardless of the silence.
Nota typically fires off opinions within hours of any Emtee release, but his feed has zero mentions of the deluxe edition this time around. Fans pointed out the pattern break, and Emtee stayed cool about the whole thing.
When someone commented that Nota does not make music, Emtee clapped back by saying the guy just has a big mouth. The rapper seems fine letting the project speak for itself without needing validation...
Major League DJz are getting flamed on X after they supposedly ghosted producer Mdu aka TRP on a $50,000 bag they promised him publicly. The whole thing kicked off when DJ Maphorisa hyped up Mdu for putting the log drum on the map and basically reshaping amapiano for everyone, and the twins responded by saying they would send him around R845,000 as a thank you. They ended up deleting the tweet later.
People started roasting them online for never following through. An account that claims to speak for PianoHub, which is the label Mdu works under, dropped a statement saying he has not seen a single rand from what was promised. The internet is not letting them live it down.
Lamiez Holworthy pulled up to her best friend Funny Chef's baby shower with a limited-edition Nuna x BMW stroller and a bunch of other gear for the kid. The DJ posted a video showing the moment her friend walked into the decorated venue and got surprised by everyone who came through to celebrate.
Lamiez wrote about how wild the past year has been for both of them and how nobody would have guessed her bestie would be married and pregnant this fast. She said God has a weird way of flipping the script when you least expect it.
She promised to back Funny Chef through motherhood and made it clear that the baby girl is going to be spoiled beyond belief. The whole thing got people hyped online about how solid their friendship is.
Junior King's girlfriend, Kayla Peters, dropped a gut-wrenching tribute on Instagram after the rapper died in that Free State highway crash. She posted a screenshot of him saying people only show love when you're gone, and then added her own message about losing her best friend and the father of her kids.
Peters said they talked the day before he passed, and he told her everyone is just borrowed to each other for a little while. She promised his legacy will keep going through her and their children, and she swore on everything they built together this year that she would make sure he stays remembered.
The two were tight both personally and professionally, and they worked on multiple projects as a duo. Fans started sending her support...
Oros Mampofu and his wife, Bianca, just welcomed their third daughter, and the actor posted about it with some pretty emotional captions. He thanked God for trusting him with another girl and promised to protect all three of his kids for as long as he lives.
The couple already had two daughters before this one dropped, and people online were hyping up how solid their family unit seems. Oros wrote that he wants to be the kind of dad his daughters can run to when they need advice or just want to feel safe.
Fans flooded the comments section with congratulations after he shared pictures holding the newborn. The whole vibe was wholesome, and everyone seemed genuinely happy for them.
Khuzani Mpungose tied the knot and posted pictures from the ceremony with his partner of ten years. The maskandi artist showed up in a suit while his bride wore a white gown, and celebrities flooded the comments with well-wishes.
He had already told people months back that the wedding was happening in December at his hometown of Nkandla. The 35-year-old Blue Nation leader mentioned he wants multiple wives down the line, and this was just the first marriage.
The celebration mixed traditional Zulu customs with maskandi vibes and pulled in royal family members plus a bunch of musicians. Fans had been waiting for this moment since he first announced his plans.
Samkelo Shezi posted a picture of himself rocking women's underwear, and the internet lost its mind trying to figure out what the move was about. The musician and influencer is DJ Tira's son, and he already had people talking earlier when he claimed that paying lobola for his girlfriend, Mbali Dlamini, wiped him out financially.
Someone on X asked if the whole thing was just engagement farming, and the replies went absolutely wild. Users were split between thinking he got hexed, suspecting relationship drama, or just being completely baffled by the choice.
The post blew up with confused reactions and theories about what could have led to the moment. Nobody seemed to have a clear answer, but everyone had an opinion.
