JR doing some charity work.

JR- A Proud Advocate of Mandela Day

The zealous and multi-talented hip hop enigma JR has been blessed with a fruitful career that has presented him with exciting opportunites. He has put his efforts into many projects recently, pushing the boundaries of creativity in hip hop and exploring new business ventures.  Of these endeavours none is more close to his heart than that of Nelson Mandela Day.
Last year JR and the Nelson Mandela Foundation joint forces to produce a song for Mandela Day that can only be described as heartfelt.  This very song inspired the rapper to do his part for Mandela Day and live by example.  The proud Attridgevillian is dedicated to make a difference in his community by dedicating his time and resources to better the lives of the less fortunate.
JR and his team would like to invite you to be a part of this significant day as he travels to different homes in Pretoria to provide relief and restore hope.

Date:  17 July 2011
Time:  07:30 – 16:00
Venue: Boza’s Kishin, Diepsloot.
Places to be visited: Lebogang Orphanage, Boikhutsong and Leamogetswe.

A clothing Brand that just cought my eye. TISA!

Wrap it up!


As most of you would say that cold weather = BMW (Baby Making Weather). We have been experiencing a rather random weather lately here in RSA and most of you will be cuddling under the sheets this weekend. Yes i know its cold to be sleeping alone during cold weather, just make sure you wrap it up with a condom. The world is already too populated with unnecessary babies mates. So just wrap it up before you regret and suffer 9months later ye. Im just saying. Oh and its not just about having an unplanned baby bt protect yourself from AIDS and all kinds of unwanted diseases. CALL ME UNCOOL IF YOU HAVE TO.

My Opinion about Back To The City 2011

So yes I attended Back To The City for the 1st time yesterday, but for some odd reason it felt like I've attended before. But that's just me. Was looking forward to the perfomances and the Dj's especially Dj X and Shluda the Guru's sets. But then the was women. Hmmm. Even Dj Jab A Jaw complained that he missed half the show beacuse of the eye candy that was there. Honestly speaking the show started a bit slow, coz when I arrived they were putting the final touches to the stage, the music was already playing thou, which was the main element of the show. But as soon as everything was done. The show got under way smoothly, except the fact that artist had to perform for a short time, due to the long list and the show running a bit late. I loved the Redbull car with the Dj Booth, that Dj X was playing from, that was dope, my best performers for the night have to be, Scavengers with Dj Cuddles, AKA with Dj Fanatic, Driemanskap and last but not least Kwesta now honestly he shut it down. Juan and CrowtV from PullOva where also there taking footage of the event and they were indeed doing a great job, also spotted at Raphael Griffiths and Tshego malepe from Qbase28 on SABC 2 hanging out at the RedBull tent. Nthato mr Strusbob himself was also there alotta other good came out in numbers aswell even spotted Njabulo Shabangu Shabangu the producer of cutting edge on SABC 1 there. Was kinda surprised that the Music At Last crew wasn't on the DJ Line up though, got to hang with Dj Romz Deluxe from Respek Studios. My colleague at Boogy Maboi was also there repping Rhythm100radio. thumbz up for the security, those bouncers were looking super huge and mean, every1 was behaving. Saw Dj Zakes for the 1st time, damn his huge, a gr8 dj he is though. Myself and Dj Khrysis were looking forward to the gaming competition and we were so disappointed when it didn't happen, coz we were gonna win that R5000 and the BlackBerry phones, but its all good. I was impressed with the entire event over all just minor glitches there and there, I'm definitely attending again next year if the world hasn't ended since its gonna be 2012. But hopefully it doesn't end. 8 out of 10 from me. Hope to see everyone and more next year.

The Rosebank Peroni Strada Experience!! It all went down on the 5th March 2011

Honestly speaking from my side there are no words to describe what happens at a Peroni Strada, i say you just have to be there and experience everything LIVE!!!

This is what a lady friend of mine (Sithabile Mkhize) had to say about her experience.........

Everyone knows that 3 elements make up the italian experience. Cars, fashion and an ice cold Peroni. The Peroni Strada event was short of none of the above and the moment you walked in you were whisked away to another place...Italy. The music creates an ambience, the company validates your relevance and to top it all off a cold, crisp Peroni completes the experience. Even if one was not a Peroni consumer the atmosphere is enough to make you try any thing once and it would be well worth it. One sip is enough to convert you into an avid supporter of the drink. Peroni represents the opulent but relaxed lifestyle that so many of us seek and after just a couple of hours at the Peroni Strada event I was reminded of everything I work so hard for. The event was glamour, relevance and then some and I would love to be a part of that club (if there was 1) any day.

06 March 2011 HOOK UP SUNDAE

BirdMan BMFing

Reminder: It's The Rapper's Money Not Yours

By Tha Office
February 18, 2011 | 4:12pm

The other day, I had the privilege of interviewing Bryan "Birdman" Williams for this website. One of my questions was how he spent the $1 million he won betting on the Green Bay Packers to win the Super Bowl. Without any hesitation Weezy's father said he bought a Maybach (click here to read the whole story).

Admittedly, when I posed the question about what he did with his money to Baby, I gently asked if one of the things he did was give it to charity. That's when he gave me the Maybach answer. But no judgment here. Far as I'm concerned the man is free to do with his money what he wants and, in his defense, who knows what other ways he spends the money we don't hear about it? But as was expected, ridicule towards Baby's purchase started pouring in via Twitter and other social outlets.

A similar thing happened a couple of weeks ago when a news clip of Rick Ross, Diddy, and Pharrell spread on the Internet. In the clip, the reporter says the three artists threw out nearly $1 million in cash at the King of Diamonds strip club. Not a day had gone by before posts were being written and random folks on my own Twitter timeline accosted the men for their actions, citing all the different good causes the money could have gone towards.

Now paint me some sort of superficial jerk who cares nothing about the world's problems, but honestly, if I had $1 million in disposable income, I'm pretty sure getting a Maybach or a night at one of the world's best strip clubs would be at the top of my list of things to do. Would I give any of it to a good cause? Sure. Whatever I had left could go to a good cause, but the first good cause I'm going to support is myself. Why? It's my money, and I earned it.

But the reality is, this is probably why a higher power has never and might not ever bestow upon me a cool mil.

R.I.P Brett Jackson

Brett Jackson... Gone Too Soon

By:Guest Contributor

Published:16 Feb 11

 

It is with much sadness to announce the passing of a producer and DJ, Brett Jackson. This morning (Wednesday 16), Jackson lost his battle to Hodgkins Lymphoma Cancer at the Pretoria East Hospital.

Diagnosed with the disease in November 2008, Brett fought back like a true soldier - even contributing his time and status to the CANSA Organisation's fundraising courses and contributing a portion of his royalty earnings to the organisation.

Born 28 May 1982, Brett Jackson became known for his soulful deep house sounds - being cross-over and breaking into the urban market scene. With several critically acclaimed compilation series under his belt such as, The Deeper Sound of Brett Jackson, Dig Deeper Vol 1 & 2, Soul Select Vol 1-3, The Best of OM & most recently Soul Candi Sessions 5. On an international level, Brett was renowned - From Cape Town to Karlsruhe, Durban to Dubai, Brett Jackson has rocked dancefloors across Belgium, United Kingdom, Czech Republic, Switzerland, South Africa, Germany, Spain, United Arab Emirates (UAE) and beyond.

Brett Jackson joined the Soul Candi family in 2003 as the record store manager and buyer and was currently the label manager of the Urban Dance division. His contribution to the label saw him compile some of the biggest selling albums the label has ever released. A true music visionary he was.

Much can be said for his life as a DJ - but as a man, he was one of ethics, honour, honesty and indeed a true soldier.

May his soul rest in peace

Dineo Ranaka has a Drug Problem??

Rehab For Dineo Ranaka?

By:Guest Contributor

Published:16 Feb 11

 

Controversial YFM DJ Dineo Ranaka has reportedly been ordered to go to rehab or lose her job.

Ranaka, who was suspended last week, is said to be having serious drug addiction problems.

Internet reports also say that Ranaka's situation is being made worse by a series of fights she had with the station's marketing manager, Tamaria Motsepe.

Ranaka's Afternoon Drive Show has since been taken over by content producer Bujy and co-host Linda Mabaso.

YFM staff, who spoke to SowetanLive on condition of anonymity, said a well-known DJ at the station sells drugs to colleagues.

We hope Ranaka is the only one having drug addiction problems at Y!
