OFFICIALLY OUT ☑️

Ⓜ️on wealth💌 just dropped the official music video for “Paola Ka Hodima Paola” on YouTube 🔥

From the first frame, “Paola Ka Hodima Paola” feels like a celebration. Mano Visuals.📹 captures Mon Channel in his element — culture, style, and Vaal pride all in one.

The visuals give the song a new layer. If you’ve been bumping the audio, this is how it was meant to be seen.

Produced and presented by *Smiles Stumes*, with the visual directed by *Mporom Mesku*, the cypher is being called “our version of Vaal Hip Hop”.

“IT’S A COLLECTIVE ARTISTRY”:
According to Tbu Twiz, the Vaal doesn’t have one sound. It has a spirit.

“Vaal Hip Hop doesn’t have a specific sound, it’s a collective artistry feeding off of each other’s unique sounds to either evolve or polish what has been... and this is our version of Vaal Hip Hop that has groomed us to becoming who we are now, and this may be the last of us”- T’Bu Twiz

That line is why the title hits. “The Last Of Us”.
Is it the end of an era? A statement? A challenge to the next wave? The cypher doesn’t answer it. It just raps.

THE LINEUP:
1. wuhs-sai_mu-zik
2. Leqhwa Kabo Kgopo
3. FATHER TEQ
4. Young Grootman
5. Owzer Channelcloser Toka
6. T’Bu Twiz - Host and curator

Each artist brings their own lane, but the thread is Vaal. No industry plant. No Joburg cosign needed. Just bars.

WHAT TO EXPECT:
Expect raw bars, no hooks, and one 4-minute showcase of why The Vaal has been cooking in silence.
Shot by Smiles Stumes Presents and directed by Mporom Mesku, the visual is set to drop with the audio on Monday.

“LAST OF US: Vaal Hip-Hop Cypher” drops Monday, 27 July 2026. Stay tapped in.

Bafana Bafana and FCSB defender Siyabonga Ngezana has given fans a positive update on his road to recovery.

A month after sustaining the injury that sidelined him, Ngezana took to social media to post pictures showing his progress in recovery. The defender was all smiles as he worked through training sessions, signaling that he’s pushing hard to get back on the pitch

The Road Back:
Ngezana picked up the injury last month while on club duty for Romanian giants FCSB. The setback came at a tough time, with both club and country fixtures piling up.

But the latest photos show a different story — gym work, landscape tourism, and that familiar focus. For supporters who have been worried, it was the update they needed.
The posts drew hundreds of comments of support within minutes:
“Come back stronger, Siya 💪🇿🇦”
“Miss seeing you marshal that defense. We’re behind you.”

The tone was clear: patience, but excitement to see him back.

What’s Next:
While no official return date has been announced by FCSB, the pictures suggest Ngezana is in the final stages of his rehab. If all goes well, he could be back in match-day contention in the coming weeks.

For now, it’s one step at a time. But judging by the energy in his update, the wait won’t be long.

A new sound is rising from the Vaal, and it’s rooted in Afrotech [Sgafro].

At 12:30, July 17, music lovers tuned in for a dynamic live premiere as a Vaal-based DJ/Producer duo took over the Groove Cartel YouTube Live Mix. The set was captured live at the iconic *Sugar People Entertainment*, and it delivered exactly what the culture needed: raw energy, deep basslines, and that signature SGAFRO fusion that’s moving both the townships and the suburbs.

Inter B & Draad: SGAFRO Pioneers.
This emerging duo is making waves by blending the soul of Amapiano with the driving percussion of Afrotech. With deep roots in South Africa, Afrotech has grown from local dance floors into a global sound — and these producers are pushing it forward.

Their Groove Cartel set was more than just a mix. It was a statement. Expect rolling log drums, hypnotic synths, and transitions built for both intimate lounges and packed dance floors. The vibe? Infectious. The goal? To leave you craving the next drop.

As the caption put it: “this is a new age cultural experience you won’t want to miss.”

Sgafro Goes Global, Stays Local—What makes this moment big is the timing. [Sgafro] has transcended borders — you’ll hear it in Berlin clubs and in Soweto shebeens. But it still belongs to us. This Vaal duo represents that bridge: music that speaks to home first, but travels everywhere.

The Groove Cartel platform, known for spotlighting the next wave of SA DJs and producers, gave them the perfect stage. And with Inter B & Draad involved, expect the visuals and sound to match the energy.

Watch It:
If you missed the *12:30 live premiere*, the full set is now up on Groove Cartel’s YouTube channel. Go watch, share, and add it to your playlist.

For Entertainment of Vaal and the broader creative scene, this is proof that talent from the Vaal is not waiting. It’s leading.

SINAM - Sharpeville is Not a Massacre — presents SINAM Health + Wellness Day, a Nelson Mandela Day initiative taking place at the Sharpeville Human Rights Precinct.

It’s a morning of movement, community, and giving back. And it starts early.

Date: Saturday, 18 July 2026
Venue: Sharpeville Human Rights Precinct
Start Time: 07:00
Activities: 5KM Walk + Aerobics
Registration Fee: R67
Register Online: http://www.sinam.org.za

The R67 isn’t random. It’s Mandela’s 67 years of service. And this year, every cent goes toward the Tlong Sekolong School Shoes Donation Initiative — making sure kids in the community have proper school shoes.

The event will be run under ASA & AVT rules, and medals will be awarded to all participants. So whether you’re walking for fitness, for Mandela, or for the kids, you’re getting recognized for showing up.

More than just a walk:
SINAM has been doing this work in Sharpeville for years. The organization runs programmes around health, wellness, and education, while also addressing gender-based violence, femicide, and men’s mental health.

The name itself is a statement. Sharpeville is Not a Massacre is about rewriting the narrative of the town — from tragedy to healing, from memory to action.

That’s why this day matters. It’s part of the national Mandela Day call to dedicate 67 minutes to service. But in Sharpeville, it’s also about unity and wellness in a community that’s carried so much history.

Partnering with Gauteng Tourism Authority and supported by Gauteng Province, the day brings together sport, health education, and community service under one roof.

How to be part of it:
Registration is R67 and open now at www.sinam.org.za.
You can also follow updates on SHARPEVILLE IS NOT A MASSACRE or call 084 777 6116.

Show up at 7:00AM at the Human Rights Precinct. Walk. Move. Talk to your neighbor. And know that your R67 is going directly to putting shoes on a child’s feet through the Tlong Sekolong initiative.

Last year the event drew people together for health and unity. This year the focus is the same, but with a clear goal: wellness for us, and dignity for the next generation.

Because Mandela Day isn’t just about remembering. In Sharpeville, it’s about moving.
