They have become one of the most influential acts in the Amapiano movement and still maintain that status to this day. Without revealing too much, Maphorisa hinted during an interview with Metro FM that there would be a surprise African artist, as they have collaborated with artists such as Nigerian superstars Wizkid and Burna Boy on their sophomore album. Their joint projects 'Scorpion Kings' and 'The Return of the Scorpion Kings' have not only taken over from the beginning but also helped propel the genre into international spaces.

'The pre-show stage is all about celebrating music and making the day at Loftus unforgettable,' the Scorpion Kings said in a joint statement. The concert will mark their first large-scale stadium appearance together since 2022, and they are promising a high-production showcase with performances that will showcase more than one genre. The event is positioned as a celebration of collaboration and culture, with Kabza and Maphorisa closely involved in shaping everything from the music selection to the stage design. "Scorpion Kings Live with Friends" is set to take place at Loftus Versfeld Stadium on Friday, August 29. With the latest update, fans are encouraged to arrive early as doors will open at 2pm to catch the full line-up before the headline act closes out the night.

New nursery opens in Cape Town for endangered African Penguins

CAPE TOWN – A new state-run seabird nursery has been opened in Cape Town to incubate and hand-rear critically endangered African penguins. The African penguin population has been in decline, with climate change, food shortages, and commercial fishing threatening their survival. Nicky Stander, from the South African Foundation for the Conservation of Coastal Birds, says the initiative is a necessary step. 'While it sounds very cute to have a seabird nursery, we should not have to do this,' she says. According to Stander the pressures in the wild mean penguins are not coping. She says there is a lack of food, and sardines being the penguins main food, are unfortunately heavily over fished.
