0

The Metro FM Music Awards will be taking place on Saturday, May 6, at Mbombela Stadium in Mbombela, Mpumalanga, and will be broadcast live on SABC 1.

This year sees the return of the radio station’s previously highly regarded awards for the first time since it last took place in 2017 at Durban’s ICC under a cloud of controversy over its credibility after allegations that some of the awards were rigged or bought.

The awards committee will be desperate to mend its reputation by putting on a well-organized spectacle that steers clear of any controversy.

Among the most exciting prospects at the awards will be the hotly contested Song Of The Year category.

Ways to keep the attraction alive in your relationship

0

Whether you’re in a long-term or a short term relationship, every relationship needs time and effort for it to work.

What may have seemed beautiful and amazing in the beginning, may not be the same now. With time, your bond, your perspective on life and your aims and aspirations, everything changes and you might feel a bit drained and stressed about your relationship.

However, that does not mean you should give up. If you’re serious about your relationship with your partner and want to give it a second chance, all you need to do is put in some extra time and effort. Besides that, here are 7 ways that will help you revive the love in your life and will keep the attraction alive between you and your partner.

1. Surprise each other from time to time
The element of surprise is one of the most important aspects of any relationship. Doing the same thing over and over again makes your relationship boring and uninteresting. Be spontaneous and go an extra mile to spice things up between you and your partner. A surprise date or a movie night together or even a wonderful gift may do the trick. This not only helps your partner see the effort you put into your relationship but also makes them feel loved and appreciated.

2. Be affectionate
Love and affection are the two important foundations of a romantic relationship. If any of it is missing in your bond with your partner, your relationship is doomed to fail. Therefore, it is extremely crucial that you shower all the love and affection on your partner and make him/her feel special.

3. Make wonderful memories together
If you sincerely want to keep the love and attraction between you and your partner alive, you definitely need to engage more in fun activities together. That being said, you need to make more exciting memories. Something that overshadows the bad times in your relationship. Let it be wonderful and something that you’ll cherish for the rest of your life.

4. Support one another
If you’re in a relationship, you need to be supportive of your partner. You ought to have your partner’s back in good times or in bad, whether it is a family problem or a financial issue. This will be your time to prove yourself as a worthy partner and something that will determine your love for them.

5. Prioritize your relationship
There is nothing more attractive than prioritizing your partner over everything else in your life. In a relationship, the connection or a bond between two people is often compromised by the choices one makes over the other. Although your partner may not express it, it can be hurtful. So make sure you take care of your partner and don’t sidetrack them at all.

6. Do not argue over trivial things
No relationship is perfect. Arguments and disagreements are bound to happen. But what we don’t know is that these petty quarrels tend to kill the romantic vibe in our relationship and weakens our bond with our partner. Therefore, you must learn to weigh things and avoid the trivial issues in your relationship. Stop making a big deal out of everything, instead use that time to strengthen your bond.

7. Communicate more
Talk! Talk! Talk! The best way to keep your love alive is to communicate as much as you can. Whether you’re facing a personal problem or are having trouble dealing with a certain something in your relationship, discuss with your partner. This will not only lighten up your heart, but it will also help your partner understand you more.

Unveiling a New ERA of Fashions with African Fashion Spaces. The African Fashion Spaces Exhibition took the fashion world by storm this past week, showcasing an innovative experiential take on traditional runway shows. Instead of a traditional ramp, the exhibition took place in a unique unexpected environment, creating a dynamic and exciting immersive experience for all attending guests.

Held on Thursday, 27th April at Beachwood Gardens in Hyde Park, the event featured some of South Africa’s dopest fashion creatives and models, aimed to showcase the diversity and richness of African fashion and heritage within the culture. The serene setting conceptually drew out the essence of each designer by showcasing each brand in their own respective curated runway stage settings as well as creatives to match the brands aesthetics.

The event was hosted by none other than social media maven, Shamiso Mosaka, who led the audience through a 2-part show that was nothing short of spectacular. The two brands for the evening were ‘Long Season’ and ‘OffMankind’, who were both impeccable in their presentation in creativity, garments display and conceptual exhibition.

Opening the show, LongSeason’s apparel delivered a breath-taking offering that took place at the venue’s tennis court boasting a modern slick black matt as a runway, lit up with orange bright beams, wonder and suspense. The atmosphere was electric, and guests were eager to see what LongSeason – a clothing brand dedicated to family, experimental construction and comfort had in store for them.

AFRICAN FASHION SPACES

The second exhibition by the garden walkway was OffMankind, a brand that represents the rebellious, non-conformist spirit of South Africa’s inner-city kids. The collection was a mix of urban streetwear and traditional African elements, creating a unique and bold fashion statement. The OffMankind collection reflected the brand’s philosophy of embracing individuality and breaking away from the norm.

The African Fashion Spaces experience, also known as AFS was not just a fashion show, it was an exhibition documenting the movement of African creativity and talent. The event provided a platform for emerging designers to showcase their work and connect with industry leaders. It was a night of networking, inspiration and celebration.

Commenting on the event, Jay Kayembe, the creative director, said, “We wanted to create an experience that was more than just a fashion show, an exhibition platform that would empower the greater creator economy. We want to showcase African fashion in a unique and dynamic approach within South Africa & going into the broader countries within Africa all of 2023. By taking the show off the traditional runway and into unique and unexpected spaces, we were able to create a one-of-a-kind experience that truly highlighted the creativity and diversity of fashion creatives that is inclusive of all subculture genres, that have a talent & passion within fashion.” 

       “Overall, the African Fashion Spaces exhibition experience was a resounding success, garnering praise from attendees and media alike it is no wonder a global tech brand like DJI – who are world leaders in camera technology and drones have partnered with African Fashion Spaces (AFS) in sharing the vision on empowering the creator economy across genres with the brand ethos ‘Unlocking Creativity and Adventure”  affirmed Ben Siyotula, Core Group Marketing Manager.

Jub Jub‘s single, which drops later this month, is titled “Soldier”.

But the announcement of the upcoming release hasn’t quite gone according to plan for the two artists. Instead of fans expressing their excitement at a collaboration as unique as theirs, all the attention has turned to the lackluster face mash-up of both artists on the cover art.

Jub Jub

“Dropping this month ????????????,” shared Jub Jub on Twitter along with the cover art.

As tweeps peppered Jub Jub with comments, trolling the artwork, radio personality Sizwe Dhlomo responded to the initial tweet with a suggestion, “Just put a solid black line between the face me merge & this artwork will be fine.”

While some fans felt like the cover art was hopeless, others agreed that Dhlomo’s suggestion might actually come in handy.

One fan’s post of a revised version of the cover art with a black line separating the two artist’s faces has been making the rounds on Twitter and has garnered hundreds of retweets and over 600K views.

“After I read this 15 times I got it,” shared @realmrumadrive, along with an image of the cover art.

Jub Jub responded by suggesting that he’d pay anyone who could better the original artwork. “It’s crazy how the majority of you’ll think. Anyway, if you think you can do better, show me, and if it’s better, I’ll pay you for it and use it… hashtag us on #jubjubemtee #soldier (smh).”

Earlier in the week, Emtee shared that he’d be releasing a new single alongside Sliqe, Thato Saul, and Saudi on Friday.

The 30-year-old has been on an impressive feature run over the past year and a half that’s seen him work with the likes of Nasty C, Yanga Chief, and Chad Da Don.

He also recently announced a new upcoming collaboration with Skhandaworld rapper Loki.

Taking to his Instagram this week, Moshe Ndiki announced his new relationship when he shared a cute loved-up picture with his new beau.

He simply captioned the post: “Something about when love locates you ♥️.”

Moshe Ndiki

Industry colleagues and celebrity friends including Thando Thabethe, Omuhle Makaziwe Gela, Londie London, Tshepi Vundla, and Simz Ngema shared heart-warming messages in celebration of Ndiki’s newly found romance.

Moshe Ndiki

Last year, in a previous interview with “Isolezwe”, Ndiki confirmed that he was no longer married to Bala.

He said despite his marriage with Bala not working out, he still believes in love and marriage.

“As a person who was married before, I am still intending to marry again because I love marriage and I love love,” Ndiki said.

Moshe Ndiki

“The problem is not in love or marriage, but it’s in people.”

Ndiki and Bala tied the knot in 2019 in a private ceremony.

The couple only revealed their secret marriage on their first wedding anniversary.

Moshe Ndiki

Fans were shocked to learn that the couple got married and kept it under wraps for over a year.

In June 2020, reports emerged that Bala was allegedly assaulted by Ndiki with a candle stand. The musician then obtained an interim court order against Ndiki.

The alleged incident took place in May at the couple’s Northriding home in Johannesburg.

Ndiki also filed a countercase alleging that the relationship had become abusive with Phelo assaulting him on several occasions.

Meanwhile, Ndiki recently announced that he is going to be a father in a heartwarming Instagram post.

Moshe Ndiki

The star also confirmed that he is expecting twins via a surrogate.

“Today we went on our final ‘can we tell people’ scan and I couldn’t be happier, what a journey, what a dream come true,” wrote Ndiki.

“I’ve prayed for this miracle of just being a dad, and also this gift to myself on my 31st birthday, my mom whose now a soon-to-be grandmother.”

He added: “I have no words over God’s mercy and love for me. The past 2 years I’ve tried to live and build a life where I and my child could be good, comfortable, safe, loved and God said “because uphapha “ bamba TWINS ????????.

“It’s a funny story how that happened but I thank God and my surrogate, my surrogate’s husband and family. My egg donor, thank you thank you.”
