Local star Clement Maosa releases uplifting ‘Lekompo Anthem'
Quick read 'Skeem Saam' actor Clement Maosa has released a vibrant new single titled Lekompo Anthem with up-and-coming artist Bayor97. Rooted in the joy and unity of Lekompo culture, the track blends nostalgic influences from the Dalom Kids with fresh energy. Maosa hopes the feel-good anthem will unite families and find success on radio and TV. Bayor97 sees the collaboration as a stepping stone toward more partnerships and greater exposure. Full story POLOKWANE – Clement Maosa, best known for his role as Kwaito in the Sepedi soapie 'Skeem Saam', has released his new single, 'Lekompo Anthem' alongside rising artist Bayor97. Rooted in the joyous spirit of Lekompo culture – where communities stay united and dance their troubles away – the track pays homage to a classic tune by the Dalom Kids while adding fresh energy for today's audiences. Maosa sees Lekompo's rapid rise as the perfect moment to share a hit that bridges generations. 'My dream is to keep releasing music that travels internationally, bringing families together with that nostalgic, feel-good vibe,' he said. He hopes the anthem will earn widespread radio and television play, becoming a staple at family gatherings. Music has always been at the heart of Maosa's life. From school choirs to Sunday school performances, he has embraced every opportunity to tell stories through song. 'An authentic artist pours their soul into their music,' he said. Behind the scenes, Maosa faces familiar industry hurdles: securing effective public relations, marketing to broader audiences, and overcoming low streaming revenues. He tackles these challenges by leveraging his social media presence and seeking creative alternatives to keep his music in the spotlight. For Bayor97, inspiration struck organically during a studio session. After reaching out to Maosa about a collaboration, he found the perfect moment to introduce a classic sample into the mix. 'I want to push this track to the limit, open new doors, and spark more collaborations.' With ambition and openness to wherever the journey leads, both artists are poised to take Lekompo culture, and their careers, to new heights.

What Youth Day means to RHS youth
Learners from Randfontein High School (RHS) shared their thoughts on what Youth Day means to them. • Also read: 'Born and peanut-buttered' in the West Rand – new RHS principal Nyiko Ngobeni, the Grade 11 representative, said Youth Day is a time to celebrate South Africa's history and the challenges overcome, such as Apartheid. 'The youth of 1976 fought for our right to education as school learners, and it's important to honour the legacy they left behind.' Goitseona Motsuenyane shared that she truly enjoys Youth Day. 'Black children fought for an education equal to that of white children. They recognised the injustice and believed they deserved the same. I feel fortunate to learn things my parents never had the opportunity to, and I'm grateful that I can now educate them as well.' Reabetswe Moemane added, 'It's a day to celebrate the children who fought for our education and equal rights. They saw the inequality in how white children received better schooling. I'm grateful for the opportunities I have – opportunities my parents never had. I appreciate the youth who fought for our rights.' Tshegofatso Tsime said that for her, Youth Day symbolises the Soweto Uprising. 'Learners fought for their rights and for their voices to be heard. To celebrate, we make TikTok videos of South African dances and use them to educate others about the Soweto Uprising.' At Caxton, we employ humans to generate daily fresh news, not AI intervention.
