Stand by for Mo Eazy's Teriba Nigerian artist Mo Eazy returns with Teriba, a new single that blends soulful Afrobeat with spiritual depth. Meaning 'to surrender' in Yoruba, Teriba is a heartfelt anthem about letting go, trusting in a higher power and finding strength through faith. With its rich harmonies, emotive lyrics and cross-continental sound, the track speaks to spiritual truth while being accessible and catchy. Produced by Zimbabwean-born Sabroso, Teriba is a fusion of West and Southern African influences — a sonic bridge between cultures and a reminder of the power of music to heal and connect. Mo Eazy draws from experience and introspection, offering a song that uplifts and empowers during uncertain times. With this lead single for his upcoming EP Ibere, he sets the tone for a project grounded in identity and purpose.

Opening nationwide on 9 May, SABBATICAL marks Karabo Lediga's feature directorial debut — and it's already shaping up to be one of the year's must-see South African films. Produced by Diprente, the powerhouse behind Matwetwe and Catching Feelings, this emotionally charged drama stars Mona Monyane as Lesego, a rising corporate star whose life unravels after a high-profile scandal forces her back to her roots. Set in Pretoria and rich in Sipitori, SABBATICAL explores ambition, sacrifice and the secrets we bury to survive. Clementine Mosimane shines as Lesego's formidable mother, with Loyiso Gola delivering a surprising dramatic turn as an investigator. With stunning visuals by Motheo Moeng and a soul-stirring score by Bokani Dyer, the film offers a layered, deeply human story. Perfect for Mother's Day weekend, SABBATICAL invites grown-up families to gather, reflect and reconnect — only in cinemas.
