Mahushu artist celebrates African heritage with new single
A local kwaito and amapiano artist has released a new single, 'Badikoma', which seeks to celebrate the significance of communal festivities and traditions in South Africa. Lwazi Chauke (24), stage name Tboy Lwazi, released the song in close collaboration with a local producer, SK Lapho, on May 16. He said the song captures the essence of African heritage, focusing on the culturally important practices surrounding the journey to the mountains, the initiation school also known as ingoma. 'This tradition is cherished by many cultures and this song honours the celebration that follows when individuals return from the mountain with moments filled with joy, connection and community spirit.' He said the new single features a line-up of talented local artists, including Abo Khahlamba, Phici and Roman Power, each bringing their flair to the collaborative masterpiece. ALSO READ: Mpumalanga musicians attend Music Creative Workshop Chauke said he started making music young and was inspired by his uncle. 'I was taught how to write songs by my uncle, Dumisani Mabilane. Later, I realised how much I love music and decided to do research on which steps to take next,' he said. 'Some of my music career highlights include winning Best Hip-Hop Album at the Mpumalanga Hip-Hop Music Awards last year. The album is called Evolve. My music has also received airplay on Ligwalagwala FM.' Chauke said his dream is to be famous and have his own record label, through which he will help talented upcoming artists in the province. 'Pushing through good and bad times has kept me going and working towards my dream. Promoting my work regardless of how many followers I have, research, asking for guidance and registering my work has brought me this far,' he said.

Shaka iLembe returns with fierce battles, royal intrigue, and tender romance
After a breathtaking debut that thrilled millions across the country, Shaka iLembe is back, and this time, the stakes are higher, the drama gets deeper, and the legacy even more powerful. The highly anticipated second season of the hit Mzansi Magic series picks up where the first left off: with Shaka no longer just the child of prophecy, but now stepping into his destiny as a leader and military strategist. While the first season explored Shaka's birth, his trials, and the ancestral forces that shaped him, the second season shifts the lens toward his rise as the legendary founder of the Zulu kingdom. Also read: 'A Queen's Lobola' sweeps awards season, bringing home top honours Lemogang Tsipa portrays the adult King Shaka, while Ntando Zondi plays the younger version of the future Zulu king. Tsipa said there was a lot to expect in this second series – power struggles, intense political manoeuvres, fierce battles, and yes, a few steamy romantic moments that show a different side of the man behind the legend. Yet at its heart, the series remains deeply rooted in historical truth, offering a visually stunning and culturally rich retelling of the Zulu kingdom's formation. Asked how he found portraying the transition of Shaka becoming king in the second series, Tsipe said, 'It is a natural progression. For me, it was a surreal kind of experience because it's one of those things where you dream as a person and then pursue that dream. Before Shaka was born, and this [to be king] was supposed to be his destiny, so I think it's a beautiful moment to be able to walk the journey from the start to the fulfillment of what he wanted. Also read: Fourways High presents Beauty and her Beast 'There's a particular side of Shaka that we haven't seen or heard about in the street books that we do explore in the series. A side that he is a bit more tender and romantic.' Wiseman Mncube portrays the late King Zwide KaLanga, a very intense character who is always eager for war. Mncube said tapping into KaLanga's spirit as a character was not easy. 'I always trust myself in anything that I do. Because it is a historical show, obviously we have to research, learn about AboZwide, and ask a lot of questions. So I just told myself, I'll just trust myself, and the script that was given.'
