Johannesburg, Friday, 5 August 2016 – Multiple award-winning, South African artist, Khuli Chana, has just launched a limited Khuli Chana Signature Edition bottle with Absolut. These limited edition bottles are available at bottle stores nationwide, and with only 3000 cases released to market, the Khuli Chana Signature Edition will undoubtedly be a highly coveted edition.

Uga Carlini’s Alison The Movie to open The Mzansi Women's Film Festival

Johannesburg, Thursday, 4 August 2016 ­ - Alison The Movie produced by award winning South African filmmaker and writer, Uga Carlini, is set to open the prestigious Mzansi Women’s Film Festival tomorrow, 5 August 2016 at 18:30 at Constitutional Hill in Johannesburg.

The Mzansi Women’s Film Festival will run from 5 August 2016 till 7 August 2016 and having Alison The Movie open up the festival speaks volumes to the importance of the message of the film and the relevance of its role for women.

Watch the trailer for Alison The Movie here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIvFTrJGWCY

The Mzansi Women's Film Festival was inspired by the 1956 Women’s March to Pretoria in South Africa in a fight against apartheid. The festival hosts films by women and about women and provides a space to recognize the role of women in the film and TV world, as well as educate, inform and entertain the audience on social, political and economical issues impacting women globally.

Uga Carlini’s hybrid feature film on Alison Botha is a deeply personal and emotional story of triumph and survival. Using a creative and innovative fairytale aesthetic, Uga Carlini’s film is a poetic and insightful exploration of trauma and overcoming that is highly suited to be showcased at festivals such as The Mzansi Women’s Film Festival.

“We are grateful to Uga Carlini for allowing us to open this year's festival with her film, Alison, and the continued support” expresses The Mzansi Women’s Film Festival organisers.

The Mzansi Women's Film Festival is done in the essence of celebrating women filmmakers and women entrepreneurs to encourage the spirit of engagement, collaboration and co-creation for a better and informed society.

“I’m only just getting used to the fact that there is a movie out there about ME (no - not at all - still not used to it) – and now I’m supposed to cope with the fact that it’s the OPENING FILM of the inspiring, awesome Mzansi Women’s Film Festival. What an honour! I think I’ll just go back into my bubble and pretend it’s all a dream – that’s pretty much what it feels like. I’m hoping to see you all there” expresses Alison Botha.

Make sure to catch this inspirational film when it opens up nationwide at Nu Metro cinemas from 12 August 2016.

The Verb101 Releases new song titled Kush & Money

Johannesburg Thursday, 04 August 2016.  The Verb101 is a mainstream South African Hip Hop artist who is signed to his own independent record label that he started in 2012 with label-executive partner Lwande Makohliso.

The talented rapper saw a niche in the music industry when he realised that almost every Hip Hop artist is making a "flavour of the week" type of sound and that's when he realised that he had to create music that will set him apart from most rappers. Kush and Money is his fifth single taken from his 2015 album-prelude, the Speakeasi EP, the EP comprised of 8 songs including two bonus songs for his fans. This new song speaks to the new age kid who embraces the trap-beats and yet has respect for the rhythm and poetry style of rap.



The song production is by The Verb101's long-time friend and high school mate, Ayanda Daydreamer Nkosi who is also Speakeasi productions' in-house musical director. The song contains an excerpt from the song “Won’t get fooled again" by American Rock-band, The Who.


The production style on this record is an artistic infusion of hard-core underground Rock n Roll snare drums with a modern day Rap music sound that the kids can relate to. On this song The Verb101 delivers his verses with calmness and the confidence of an experienced lyricist as he should for he has been rapping for over 9 years and has been making music for the past 7 years.

The  Verb 101 at CliffCentral

Song description: A Hot-boxer's delight, a heavy snared and dark instrumentation-filled hip hop record with a complex trap-tempo that bridges the gap between underground and commercial music. "It's a mainstream record that's considered to be the joint to listen to while puffing on a good joint" - the rapper adds Social media handles: Connect with The Verb101: Instagram: The_Verb101 Facebook: The Verb101 Twitter: The_Verb101 YouTube: Speakeasi Productions

The inaugural Miss Ghana South Africa pageant to take place on 27 August 2016

Johannesburg, Tuesday, 2 August 2016 – The inaugural Miss Ghana South Africa pageant in association with the Ghana High Commission is set to take place on Saturday, 27 August 2016, at 18:30 at the Bryanston Country Club in Johannesburg, South Africa.

Tickets are R350 per person, R600 per couple or R3000 per table of 10. Purchase your tickets now to avoid disappointment and form part of history with this cultural celebration of Ghanaians living in South Africa.

Tickets info: www.missghanasouthafrica.org

The inaugural Miss Ghana South Africa pageant will see 10 girls of Ghanaian heritage residing in South Africa competing for the prestigious title at a glitzy high profile black tie dinner event. Metro FM’s Programs Manager of Ghanaian decent, Tony Soglo, and Multi-Choice Africa’s Head Of Strategy, Nonye Omotola, will play hosts on the evening.

The event will be attended by high profile guests such as His Excellency, Ghana High Commissioner, Kwesi Ahwoi, and his team.

A concept 6 years in the pipeline, Miss Ghana South Africa will finally come into fruition this year. The aim of Miss Ghana South Africa is two pronged. At one end the pageant aims to be a baton for the existence and relevance of the Ghanaian community at large in South Africa. At the other end, the pageant aims to celebrate the highly talented and exceptional ladies within the Ghanaian South African community and foster leadership amongst them to make greater contributions to South Africa from both a work and service point of view.

Ghanaians have been living in South Africa as early as the 1960s, with a larger influx of Ghanaians arriving in the 1980s to service Black South Africans under the apartheid government. Ghanaians came to fill roles in hospitals, schools and universities primarily, as there were shortages of Black skilled professionals in South Africa at the time to service Black South Africans.

Ghanaians did not take up political roles in South Africa like how some of the Indians did, but rather serviced the country behind the scenes in a loyal manner with integrity, providing excellent health care (under the circumstances) and producing excellent scholars that weren’t privy to Model C schooling.

It may be because of the quiet nature of Ghanaians that many people are surprised to find that Ghanaians have been living in South Africa for about 6 decades. Miss Ghana South Africa aims to shed light to this community that has been part of South Africa’s history for over half a century.

In recent times, Ghanaian South Africans (a term the Ghanaian South African citizens refer to themselves), have taken up roles in the arts, managerial positions in large corporate companies and the likes that their presence is quite known and felt across the country.

Famous Ghanaian’s living in South Africa include the likes of former Destiny Man editor, Kojo Baffoe; actor and screenwriter, Mpho Osei-Tutu; actress, Abena Ayivor; model, Kate Tachie-Menson; and African Leadership Network & Academy co-founder, Fred Swaniker.

Famous South Africans married to Ghanaians include the likes of Makaziwe Mandela, Hugh Masekela and Tumi Morake.

Special mention can be made of Ghanaians making strides across the globe such as former UN Secretary General, Kofi Annan; OBE actor and musician, Idris Elba; footballer, Michael Essein; and actor, Boris Kodjoe.

Other countries and regions that have successfully incorporated a Miss Ghana pageant include the USA, UK, Belgium, Canada, Germany, Italy and Ireland just to name a few.

Tickets are limited, make sure to purchase yours now to experience and enjoy one of the many diverse flourishing cultures living in South Africa.

The persistent ex

Good day Mates

So today I woke up, and realised that there is this person that I can't get over. I know she has moved on, Mhhhh well I tried to move on to but it just seem impossible.

Is she the one?

Well I think she is because of we always chat on whatsapp, I call her sometimes, when she sees me she always smiles :). As they say actions speaks louder than words.

We don't fight....

This is another factor that makes me to doubt that she might be the one. They say if you don't fight with your loved one that means you just don't love each other but you are just pretending, like you love each other. What do you say?

I love her....

Ohhh Yes I do. I loved her from 2009 when I was still an Innocent boy, I've made alot of memories with her since, especially during my Matric year.

OUR RESEMBLANCE

Educated & Smart

She might have the worst history but I love her like that. I love her,I Like her ,I Adore her from today, tomorrow and forever. She is educating herself now, I love that. She is smart I love that. An educated person to me means Happiness, thinker & Success.
