Shit we're doing worth sharing - Hola6Pack

So the world cup is here and the fever is so contagious that it does not discriminate against race, gender or nationality. You could hate soccer and love rugby with all that you are but you can't be immune to whats happening and whats is about to take place in the streets of SA.


I am Honoured to be a South African, I'm honoured to be part of the nation that is carrying Africa on its shoulders and I am also honoured to be an African (shit, I'm starting to sound like Thabo...). The world cup presents an opportunity for Africans to truly unite, it also presents an opportunity for South Africa to deal with its Xenophobic tendencies and issues.


Hola 6 Pack is a campaign that i was invited to help drive by friends on mine Terry Behan, Bonolo Sekhukhune and the Fearless Executive Team. It is a campaign that asked a simple question, "how do we mobilise all Africans to unilaterally support the continents ownership and participation in this historic event?"






From here, Hola Six Pack was born. A campaign, a movement if you will to rally support for all six participating African teams under one banner.


Hola Six Pack is one voice, one presence and one symbol for the Africa's 2010 FIFA World Cup. South Africa, Ghana, Cameroon, Algeria, Côte d'Ivoire and Nigeria together represent Africa.


Look out for the Hola 6 Pack Track, T-shirts and Gigs. This it shit worth owning, worth embracing and worth being part of. Check out www.hola6pack.co.za, http://twitter.com/hola6pack and join the movement on Facebook, look for Hola Six Pack.

Please don't stop the music

I Dont like Rihanna. At all! Something about that big forehead that gets to me. But yo, check out Jamie Cullum's version of "Please don't stop the music", its off the hinges.


The version is off Jamies latest album, "The Persuit", got it yesterday and it is the shit! I have all his albums his except one, they're all brilliant but i have been waiting for him to match his second album, "Twenty something" and in this one he has.


And the video! My God its hot - that high definition technology has been utilized well here and kept simple but super duper chick & on the edgy.

Daywalker





Had a chillout session with some friends this weekend. And as is the case, over braai's, in offices and boardrooms and restaurants across the country, one can never escape the names Zuma and Malema in any social gathering or informal conversation that lasts more than an hour.

I don’t know about you but sometimes i feel emotionally drained by the highs and lows of our leadership, and lately there seems to be more lows than highs - something which i think happens in most nations but still draining if you love your country.

However, if you ever feel despondent about the way things are going all you need is a dosage of Trevor Noah's Daywalker! The guys will make you laugh, and not just at our politicians but also at ourselves as South Africans. So when i got home after the discussions this weekend i popped in...The Daywalker.

If at times you forget, Daywalker will remind you why you love this country. It is Brilliant and everyone should own a copy!

Props to Trevor. I love comedy and as far as I'm concerned he is up there with the Kings of comedy such as the late Bernie Mac, Cedric The Entertainer and the rest of the gang.

Do yourself a favor and get it.
