My Heroes In No Particular Order

Swatch Event. Watch the Space. get it, 'watch the space.' I'm so Creative

I left home to see watches or watch watches. That sounds better. The free food was great, then I went home.

Spliff Star

He is the best side-kick in the world next to Gayle from Harpo.
Jobie hooked him up with some Butan Wear. Hopefully he rocks it at his next tv appearance.

Kill The Boer, Kill The Farmer!

16. Freedom of expression

1. Everyone has the right to freedom of expression, which includes ­
1. freedom of the press and other media;
2. freedom to receive or impart information or ideas;
3. freedom of artistic creativity; and
4. academic freedom and freedom of scientific research.
   
2. The right in subsection (1) does not extend to ­
1. propaganda for war;
2. incitement of imminent violence; or
3. advocacy of hatred that is based on race, ethnicity, gender or religion, and that constitutes incitement to cause harm. 

Above is what our constitution says which is the supreme law of the land. If ANC wants to win this case they must change the constitution but for that they will need two thirds majority which they don't have. This section of the Constitution was structured in this manner to alleviate any future injustices. If the ANC wins this case this will give rights to anybody to sing songs that might incite violence all in the name of preserving their heritage. I think this case is a waste of time and money which can be used to educate a few kids instead of spreading hatred.

The Freedom Charter preached equality.

This how genocides start. The oppressed can become the oppressor. Then where does it end. There are many injustices that need to be ractifyed but violence should not be the solution to those problems.

The plight of people should not be used as a political tool or means to accumulate material wealth. SA has one of the biggest inequality gaps in the world amongst the rich and poor. This needs to be fixed. I think tertiary education is the key to that. Access to higher learning is very difficult for an average matriculant. We need to teach the culture of self sufficiency and skills development. Government should encourage entrepreneurship and support small business owners. They create jobs in their communities.

The plight of the people should not be used by a few tenderprenuers to enrich themselves.

Why I Think Jesus is Black (If You Are Too Sensitive Please Don't Read it)

1. He was born in a barn and this means he had no medical aid like most darkies.
2. He has so many nicknames, Alfa, Omega, King of Kings, etc like many black people.
3. He was always chased by popo. They were always after him like most people with the dark complexion.
4. He had daddy issues, not sure who his real dad was like most black kids.
5. He stayed at home until his thirties.
and finally  He had a crew/entourage called the Disciples doesn't that sound like a hip-hop act.

Dj Scratch For Your Itch

When you are preparing for an interview you have to do some form of research about the subject. After I was done looking at his discography I was very disappointed for not checking this dude out. He has been spinning from the 80s until now. He has produced for the likes of 50cent, Busta Rhymes, Diddy, Guru, 112, Jay-Z, LL Cool J and numerous others. He is one of the most consistent act in hip-hop.

Fat Joe oh I mean Slim Joe. Craaaack!

Fat/Slim Joe was a pleasure to interview. He has mad love for the hip-hop culture. He lights up when he talks about Big Pun. He is one of the most humble people I have come across. He kept hyping Dj Scratch as we were interviewing him. He felt that he does not get the respect he deserves in hip-hop. My business partner Jobie Bakama is a big fan of Dj Scratch and he schooled me a bit about his catalog.

Good Experience With Ciara (She Looks Better in Person Than on TV)

Ciara was friendly and very polite. She even tried to pronounce my name but failed badly like most, lol. Her make up person was professional. She wanted her client to appear very well on screen. She even did her own quality control. I hardly ever experience that in this  industry. Props.

Sometimes or Most of the Time I Hate My Cellphone.

I have days where I wish I did not have a cellphone. The only problem is that I need this device to survive in this modern world. I sometimes think I have opened too many lines of communication from sms, phone-calls, e-mails, Twitter, Facebook and Bbm Messenger. Some people do not have respect for other peoples space. They  bbm anytime or anything.

One think about me is that I do not enjoy talking on the phone. The reason is that I have to stop whatever I am doing to attend to people. This can hinder on my productivity. Sometimes an sms or e-mail is perfect for me. This means that I can respond as soon as I am free. Some people need to respect other peoples space. After hours work calls should only be used for emergencies not for random follow ups. Only your loved ones have a right to contact you anytime. Some people are going to be blocked from my contact list because they lack respect for others.

My bad experience with Busta Rhymes and Timberland

I remember when one of our clients told me that we are going to interview Busta Rhymes, I was super excited. I am a big fan of his music, woohaaa! My excitement soon turned into a nightmare. Busta did not want to be followed or shot. My crew was on standby for two days waiting for him. When he walked backstage all doors had to be closed and we could not even shoot him from a distance. After waiting for two days Busta only gave us ten minutes of his valuable time. He did not want our sound guy to mic him. we had to make a plan for his interview. I remember when he walked into the room we had set up, he was on the phone. He told the person on the other side that he is about to do 'a little ass interview.' He just sat down and he did not even greet anyone in the room. I still love his music but I have lost so much respect for him.

I had more or less the same experience with Timberland. We had to wait for him for two days only for him to give me one word answers. His footage never made it to air because it could not be used for anything even thirty second fillers. I had a verbal bout with him, he did not want me to ask him anything about his music or career. He was a prick of note. His interview never made to air because the footage made no sense. I love his music but I have no respect for him. Apparently his performance at the Dome was rubbish. I am glad I boycotted it. I gave away my media pass to a friend who wanted to take out his girlfriend.

Flavour Music Video Shoot

I love Flavour from Naija. I was introduced to his music by Mike Ogoke, my Naija connect. He played me the final cut of Nwa Baby Remix before he dropped it off at tv stations. It was the first time I had heard of the artist and I was blown away. I remember telling him that Nwa Baby remix is a hit and it is hit, check the stats. These are pics from the set of his new music video. I was covering the behind the scene for Channel 0 Africa. The video is not out yet and I know it is going to be hot. He is one of the most chilled artist I have worked with.

My Gautrain Experience

Last week I had my first Gautrain experience. Everyday I commute from Midrand to Pta and Randburg for business. I am always stuck in traffic which is very frustrating. I think I have found a solution to my problems, GAUTRAIN! The stations are very clean and super secure. If I want to go out drinking with my other half I don't even have to drive. If you reading this and you have not tried it, just give it a chance trust me you are not going to look at public transport the same again.

How To Steal 2 Million Review

How To Steal 2 Million is one of my favorite movie to come out of Africa. The D.O.P did a splendid job of maintain a grungy look through out the flick. The four stars of the "bios-cope"carry the movie very well. The movie starts very slow but it does picks up. The movie is very unpredictable, it is worth watching.
