Win A John Legend Hamper

January 12, 2011 Competitions

The second half of last year saw the release of a project that brought together exceptional musicians and timeless music. Wake Up!, a collaborative album recorded by John Legend & The Roots, is the perfect example of what can happen when it is about the music and not ego. John Legend, in his relatively short career, [...]

Raheem DeVaughn: Soul Legend In The Making?

July 15, 2010 Music

There is something about the 70s, particularly in terms of music and fashion.  Though hard to define, the 70s were funky and soulful and meaningful.  So much spirit and energy went into that decade; politics, social issues, militancy and consciousness seemed to fuse with love and sex and music and life. I was born into [...]

Usher – Raymond v Raymond

April 28, 2010 Music

I’ve been working on this post for about two weeks now. I have listened to the new Usher album Raymond v Raymond, countless times, letting it run till the end and then starting it all over again.

TKzee’s New Video – Dikakapa

March 1, 2010 Music

TKZee are legendary. When they came on the music / kwaito scene over 10 years ago, they truly changed how kwaito was perceived and created. Their past EPs and albums, from Phalafala and Shibobo to Halloween and Trinity, amongst others, hold a very special place in the hearts of many South Africans (and Africans). The [...]

Sade – Soldier Of Love

February 5, 2010 Music

It is a day that blurs into the rest – nameless, timeless, and vaguely familiar – except for one thing. I must have been about 13/14 years old. Young enough to still be naive about and frightened by the hormonal murmurings that seemed to manifest themselves more and more frequently each day but, at the [...]

Into Nneka’s World

January 19, 2010 Music

A product of the conventional music business model, I have not always explored beyond what the ‘system’ pushes out. I am not proud of that and I have attempted to make up for it by submerging myself in the crevices of the Internet, where so much beautiful music resides. I visit music blogs & sites [...]
