Deputy Minister Peace Mabe celebrates TxC BET Award win
The Eastern Cape duo was named Best New International Act at the 2025 BET Awards. Deputy Minister of Sport, Arts and Culture, Peace Mabe, has congratulated Amapiano duo TxC on their historic BET Award win. The Eastern Cape duo were named Best New International Act at the 2025 BET Awards, held on Monday at the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles. TxC, made up of Tarryn Reid and Clairise Hefke, is the first South African DJ duo to win the award. Mabe said the duo's win is a proud moment for young creatives across the country. 'TxC's win is a beautiful reminder of the extraordinary talent we have in this country. These young women have worked tirelessly, broken barriers, and shown that South African sound can resonate across the world. Their win is South Africa's win. 'This moment belongs to every young girl with a dream and to every artist who dares to be different. What TxC have achieved is not just personal — it is symbolic. It tells our youth that global stages are within reach.' Mabe added that her department would continue to support young artists with access to resources, platforms, and global exposure. 'We remain committed to nurturing our creatives from the ground up. Our job is to make sure that more artists like TxC have the space and support to rise, thrive, and represent our culture with pride. 'Today, we celebrate TxC.

DJ Kotin ignites the scene with 'Thethelela' launch
Fresh off a major award win, DJ Kotin isn't slowing down. Instead, he's riding the wave of success straight into his next chapter with the launch of his powerful new single Thethelela — a track that promises to leave a lasting imprint on the Afro-Tech scene. 'It feels good releasing new music knowing people believe in you,' said Kotin, reflecting on the momentum he's carrying into this release. And it's not just any song — Thethelela is deeply personal and spiritually charged. 'The track was inspired by God,' he said. 'It's a prayer song, pleading with God to pave our way.' Musically, Thethelela marks a bold evolution in Kotin's sound. 'This song is different and interesting from all my previous songs. It's a mixture of Afro-Tech and 3 Step — the sound that's dominating the scene now. I believe this is going to be my biggest song to date.' To launch the single, Kotin chose the stylish Villa in Durban, strategically tying the event to the popular Wine Wednesday concept. 'Villa is an upmarket venue and it is spacious. On top of that, it's central. Wine Wednesday is organised by Dogg Durban, a marketing guru. I thought it will give me the mileage I need to push this song.' The title Thethelela carries a powerful message. 'We live by sin in a sinful world, so we are pleading with God to forgive us,' Kotin said. The single also features collaborations with rising talents Skyewanda, Sykes and Drega, adding further depth and energy to the track. Fans attending the launch can expect an electrifying performance. 'Fireworks,' Kotin promised. 'And the guys featured on the track will join me on stage.' Asked how he stays ahead in a constantly evolving music landscape, Kotin credited the youth. 'I work a lot with ama 2000 — seeing their hunger to succeed inspires me. They understand the new sounds and trends better, so it helps me stay relevant as well.' And for those wondering if Thethelela is a one-off? 'Yes, it's part of a bigger project,' he said. With divine inspiration, genre-blending innovation and a wave of young talent at his side, DJ Kotin is proving again he's a force to be reckoned with in the South African music scene.

How to survive the cold winter in Jozi
SA's winter doesn't last long, but it will test your resolve, your plumbing, and your ability to make a fire with damp firewood. A friend asked recently: how does one stay warm in a South African winter without losing your mind (or toes)? Let's face it, South African winters are weird. One minute it's sunny enough to venture outside without a Windbreaker, the next it's colder than your ex's heart at 3am. So, what's the average person to do when the cold creeps in like a passive-aggressive mother-in-law? Forget fashion. This is war. Put on so many layers that you start to look like a sentient laundry basket. Thermal underwear, turtlenecks, scarves, two jackets, and a beanie that's slightly too tight (bonus: it gives you a facelift). If you can still move your arms freely, you're doing it wrong. Buy one hot water bottle. Or seven. Tuck them under the duvet like warm, squishy landmines of joy. Pro tip: name them. That way, when you say, 'I'm going to bed with Gerald tonight,' it doesn't sound quite as sad. Why change out of your blanket if society has already broken down after Covid? Wrap it around your shoulders and call it a fashion statement. Bonus points if you belt it and pretend you're in Game of Thrones. Tea. Coffee. More tea. Hot chocolate. Rooibos. Cup-a-Soup. Repeat until your blood is 60% warm beverage. Warning: your bladder will revolt. ALSO READ: Gauteng braces for coldest day of the year with freezing temperatures Have you considered sitting directly on your oven? Don't. But you can bake something unnecessarily elaborate, purely for the heat. Think lasagne, banana bread, or the sourdough ingredients you never finished during lockdown. Just leave the oven door open afterward and bask like a budget lizard. Cats, dogs, toddlers – all make excellent heat sources. Bonus: they don't complain if you stick your freezing toes under them (well, maybe the toddler). If no pet is available, find a partner. Or a friend. Or a stranger at Pick n Pay. Desperate times. Then there's denial. This is a surprisingly effective method. Just pretend it's not cold. Wear shorts. Eat ice cream. Tell people you 'actually prefer winter'. Shiver internally. Cry a little. You'll be fine. You don't need fancy heaters or triple-glazed windows. You just need creativity, caffeine and a high pain threshold. South African winter doesn't last long, but while it's here, it will test your resolve, your plumbing, and your ability to make a fire with damp firewood. Stay warm, stay ridiculous, and remember: if you can survive July in Jozi, you can survive anything. PS: If all else fails, emigrate to Durban.
