OMG!!! I’M ON THIS SONG!! (Read more)
What I think I know about sobriety and 12 step programs.

1. They work, if you work them.
2. A miracle will happen, if you stay.

Good morning my angels. OMG!!! Listen @rapsody! Quit playin! Yo! You cannot mean to tell me we gotta wait till the 21st of August!!

…

Ok… listen.

It’s women’s day in South Africa on the 9th of August. I have an idea. Why not open access for women only on the 9th of August, so we can listen and dance the whole day, then we can wait till the 21st…I guess…🤔🥹

This album! Now, I grew up loving D’Angelo’s … voice … and … his ‘how does it feel’ six pack 🤤🤣 buuuuut I digress, this song! the D’Angelo sample! the lyrics! everything!

Yho! Then the visuals kesana… I love me a Dark Dindie any day anytime! Thiza! Can I just share a word of appreciation for all the gents taking care of their physical appearance. 🙌🏾 the visuals ‘are giving’ the rest of the ‘how does it feel’ music video🤣🤣🤣

Remember that iconic music video where x rated content beyond the frame, played after Takalani Sesami!

Anyway, it’s official, this is my new favourite song! For now…

Watch, listen, stream Apple Juice by my sister @rapsody produced by @iamdenaun

I’m an alcoholic.

I was so happy. I wanted to tell everyone I met. Like that story about Galileo and him screaming eureka eureka! That’s what it felt like the first time I said I’m an alcoholic. It was a revelation. An understanding. A peace.

On Monday the 23rd of September 2024 I had concluded the only solution that made sense was death. A casualty of everything we are uncovering in the #madlangacommission I had been unemployed for 5 years. I was constantly in fear. My fear enabled me to be revictimised over and over again. My life, for the first time ever, was on a downward spiralling trajectory. That sounds like an oxymoron but it isn’t, i was spiralling with trajectory!

Next thing my sister @thandiswamazwai was in my room in my flat, then mu uncle, then my other sister @miss_ntsiki_mazwai then my brother @osamazwai then a whole lot of family members and then, before I knew it, I was in an ambulance headed to rehab.

I never would have gone on my own.
I never would have said I’m an alcoholic
I would have had less of a life
I would never have known peace
I would never have shared presence with God
I would have died young even if i had lived till I was 80 years old.

21 days after that fateful day, on that day that God came to find a lost lamb, I rejoiced! I’m an alcoholic. I have a sickness and the cure to the sickness i have is not chemo or dialysis, it’s community.

After that day my life has been in an upward whirlwind trajectory. Every today is always better than yesterday.

Since then, I’ve been back on my path and aligned with my purpose even though my purpose is not known to me, I trust that it is known to the universe, known to God, and so I surrender.

Tomorrow I have a song coming out with my sister @rapsody called Apple Juice. One of my greatest gifts of sobriety was reconnecting with Rapsody, showing off my home #Soweto, and kickstarting recording my own album coming out later this year.

My greatest gift of sobriety though, is community.

As an addict, my world kept getting smaller and smaller until i was sprawled drunk and despondent on my bed which had become my whole world. As a sober alcoholic, my world is limitless. #AppleJuice

What good Maputo! Gosh! It’s been a minute and I’m so excited to be joining my boy @freshcura in a space full of memory and purpose.

There are some musical journeys that come full circle.

Fresh Nunas and Nomisupasta have shared stages, ideas and moments across continents, from New York to Maputo, building a friendship and musical connection that has stood the test of time.

For one special night, Fresh Nunas — known for his work with Vega Records and the Nulu Movement — returns home to Maputo, bringing together family, friends and collaborators for a celebration of music, culture and community through Kanimambo Club.

Joining him is Nomisupasta, the acclaimed South African artist whose collaborations and performances have connected her with some of the most respected names in contemporary African music. Together, they reunite to create a unique experience that bridges memories, journeys and new beginnings.

The night will also feature some of Maputo’s finest talents, including Gusto from DRP and Freddy da Stupid, one of the city’s most exciting new generation Afro House producers.

Adding to the experience, Rui Dub of 340ml will present an exclusive Vinyl Experience, bringing rare grooves, deep cuts and timeless selections to the dancefloor, alongside additional guests and surprises throughout the event.

From New York to Johannesburg.
From Louisville to Maputo.
From the world, back home.

A celebration of music.
A celebration of friendship.
A celebration of return.

Welcome to Kanimambo Club.

Welcome home, Fresh Nunas.

Come hang out. Listen, share, connect. #AlutaContinue

This journey started a lifetime ago.

A lifetime ago I met my sister @rapsody along the path destined for me. We communicated from strength to strength to meet again with her bringing some fire along in the form of @iamdenaun @teeba_forbes @vicgproductions . We conjured so many songs, and walked along a path to meet @sethmazibuko. O a time we had!

Then into the studio with @thandiswamazwai to continue creating.

Sober Fest is on the path and what I thought is not what is to be. How excitingly magical.

Join the quest!

You heard us. It's happening. And better yet? A significant portion of the proceeds will go to an education cause jointly selected by the schools.

If you're selected, you could be boxing on behalf of your alma mater as part of the other exciting matchups we have scheduled for the public event on Saturday 30 August, or for our private Box and Dine event for corporates and old boys only on Friday, 29 August.

Enough talk. Lace up your boots. Wear your school colours. Represent.
