Boipatong Massacre, 17 June 92 The blood spilled at Boipatong is a permanent reminder that tribal politics leads only to division, violence and tragedy. The PAC rejects tribalism as thuggerish politics that turns Africans against Africans. Our struggle is for one people, one Africa, one destiny. #BoipatongMassacre #NeverForget

Watching South Ah slowly move out of the world’s top 10 countries with populations living in extreme poverty in 1992. Endorphins. Took only 9 years to reverse that Apartheid legacy. We are capable of such greatness, SA. Never give up. Never settle for less. Demand only the best.

Before he converted to Islam in 1968 and took the name Abdullah Ibrahim, the world knew him as Dollar Brand. He earned this moniker as a teenager by hanging around the Cape Town harbor docks. He would strike up friendships with visiting American GIs and sailors to buy rare, hard-to-find American jazz records directly from them using US dollars.

In 1968, South African poet and activist Keorapetse Kgositsile (often called "Bra Willie") was featured by Dr. Maya Angelou in her groundbreaking 10-part educational television series, Blacks, Blues, Black!. Here is a longer version of their interview. PBS Archives

Oh dear. Guys, there’s no Deloitte that’s renting out office space to production companies because of some “economic indicator”. Deloitte is a tenant in that building, and the owners — Atterbury and Attacq — routinely rent out space for shoots. Why ningabuzi?

The amount of grief nations like Iran are carrying while being told to just “play football” under awful conditions on US soil, after everything that country has done to their people, is obscene.

The anomaly in South Africa is not just high taxes - it’s paying nearly 50% of your income to the state and still having to fund your own healthcare, education, transport, housing, and security. Citizens are paying twice: once through taxes, and again for the services those taxes should provide.

His generation were so crucial to solidarity building. And one thing Madiba did was acknowledge the artist’s role in the liberation movement!

For some artists, the inability to grow a loyal audience comes down to acting like they don’t care online. If you don’t care, why should anyone else? Engage with fans. Give people a reason to ride for you. Releasing music alone is not enough.

South African Scientist Dr. Sandile Ngcobo Invented the world’s first digital laser. Laser technology is a $20 billion industry. Lasers are used in barcode scanners in shops, in surgical equipment in hospitals, in office equipment such as laser printers, in DVD players and lighting displays at concerts, and for cutting and welding industrial materials in factories.

Fox paid $485 million for the rights to broadcast this World Cup. The New York Times put the fair market value at $1 to $1.5 billion. The hydration break is how Fox gets its money's worth. FIFA announced mandatory 3-minute pauses midway through each half of all 104 World Cup 2026 matches, not just hot ones. That includes games inside climate-controlled domed stadiums with roofs. The announcement came at a World Broadcaster Meeting in Washington DC. FIFA said the decision was made after consultation with coaches and broadcasters. A few months later, FIFA gave broadcasters the green light to sell ads during the pauses. Fox gets 2 minutes and 10 seconds per break, starting 20 seconds after the whistle and ending 30 seconds before play resumes. Across all 104 games, that's 832 potential ad slots that didn't exist in soccer before this tournament. Fox and Telemundo project a combined $850 million in ad revenue from the 2026 World Cup. The player welfare argument is also real. Argentina's Enzo Fernandez said he felt "dizzy" in "very dangerous" temperatures during last summer's Club World Cup in the US, where some games approached 100 degrees Fahrenheit. FIFA had reason to act. But it applied those breaks to every match regardless of conditions, and opened a commercial window that makes this World Cup more ad-friendly than any before it. Fox proved the point on day one. In the opener between Mexico and South Africa, Fox missed the 30-second return window FIFA mandated. The ball was already in play when the network came back from commercials. Coca-Cola, a top-tier global FIFA partner for decades, runs the hydration stations on the field. That same 3-minute pause serves three commercial interests at once: the field sponsor, Fox's ad revenue, and Fox's streaming subscribers. The 2030 World Cup goes to Spain, Portugal, and Morocco. The 2034 tournament lands in Saudi Arabia. Both regions see extreme summer heat. FIFA has not confirmed whether the pauses will outlast this summer's tournament. But $850 million in new advertising inventory tends to answer that question on its own.

Despite releasing 3 albums, 43 songs, 21 videos, dragging out a year-long album rollout, and having streamers lick ice cubes just to reveal a release date, he still couldn’t get there. He hit every platform imaginable. Had Akademiks, AkTV, Complex, Kurrco, Isaac Hayes III, Adam22, The Game, that one professor, half of New York media, every hip-hop blog with a Wi-Fi connection, and an entire ecosystem dedicated to pushing narratives on his behalf.

The day we won it! #Oncealways

The boy who is supposedly not ready for international football but they can’t show us a single player who is better than him in that position!

Abdullah Ibrahim's final solo performance at the Cape Town International Jazz Festival took place on Friday evening, 27 March 2026, on the Rosies Stage. The legendary 91-year-old South African pianist and composer delivered a deeply moving, meditative set that marked his final public performance in his homeland. Tragically, just over two months after this historic homecoming, Ibrahim passed away peacefully in Germany on 15 June 2026. 📷©️Siphiwe Mhlambi

I’m crying real tears😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Creative genius ran in his veins. His father was Todd Matshikiza, the legendary jazz pianist, composer, and Drum magazine journalist who composed the music for King Kong (1959), the groundbreaking all-Black jazz opera that launched the international careers of Miriam Makeba and Hugh Masekela.
