An unemployed woman from Mpumalanga is at her wits’ end after spending more than R3 000 to fight for a car she won during the SABC Summer Song of the Year campaign.
When maskandi singer Khuzani Mpungose won the UkhoziFM Ingoma Ehlukanisa Unyaka in 2020, ushering music fans into the new year, it proved that he has arrived.
No promotion for mahala! Big 5 Hlabisa Local Municipality mayor Comfort Khumalo.
BIG 5 Hlabisa Local Municipality mayor Comfort Khumalo has blasted DJ Tira, Mthandeni “Igcokama Elisha” Manqele and Mroza Fakude for not promoting their home town.
He said they should work with him to promote their rural villages, but they seem to distance themselves from the area.
He called them out while delivering the integrated development plan speech in Nqutshini in Hluhluwe, northern KZN, on Friday 30 April.
Khumalo said DJ Tira was born and raised in KwaHlabisa, but is always promoting Durban. He said he’s happy for their success, but he wants them to use their fame to promote their villages and get investors.
Mroza throws shade at Mkhathazi Jabulani Langa Mroza claims he discovered Mkhathazi.
THE war of words between 2016 SABC Song of the Year winner, Mroza Fakude, and maskandi artist Mkhathazi Nsibande is getting uglier.
Mroza took to Facebook and said he discovered Mkhathazi when he was a herder and singing to calves.
He told Daily Sun he even featured Mkhathazi on his hit song, but was shocked when he heard Mkhathazi insulted him at Kwa Mai Mai in Joburg.

“I gave him fame and made him a person. This world has lots of temptations, but I keep quiet,’’ he said.

OWEN Ndlovu has come out guns blazing by serving the SABC with a letter of demand.
The letter, served on Tuesday, orders Ukhozi FM to withdraw all arrangements of
Ingoma Ehlukanisa Unyakano later than 27 December.
Ndlovu of Michael Owen Productions (MOP) said if the SABC fails to do so he will go to court to bring an urgent application to stop them from continuing to run his concept without rights.
Ndlovu, who also stopped Ukhozi FM from announcing the New Year’s Eve song of the year last year, said he didn’t sell his concept of Summer Song to the SABC. Ukhozi FM announced Ingoma Ehlukanisa Unyaka top 10 on Saturday despite Ndlovu’s legal threats and they said they bought the rights.
