The Ridge Casino is spoiling WITBANK NEWS readers with yet another competition.
Two lucky readers can each win double tickets to the Afrotainment concert on Saturday, September 5, which is taking place at The Venue at The Ridge.
Owner and producer of Afrotainment Mthokozisi Khathi, known as DJ Tira brings his flair to eMalahleni. It was love at first sight for a music loving Dj Tira, when he was introduced to the art of deejaying in his first year of tertiary schooling. His love for music quickly turned into passion when he saved his spending money to purchase his first vinyl, the perfectionist in him drove him to mastering the art of dj’ing in a short space of time.
“On the other hand, we have Big Nuz, the well-known and highly celebrated Durban-based kwaito group under the Afrotainment record label. It is made up of three members, Mandla Maphumulo aka Mampintsha, Mzi Tshomela aka Danger and Sbu Khomo aka R Mashesha. Big Nuz’s first single under Afrotainment “Uyoysholo Wena” featured on the Durban’s Finest Volume three album made waves and reached the number one spot on many radio station charts.
Afrotainment then released Big Nuz’s second album called “2nd Round Knockout”. The album was a chart topper and sold over 20 000 copies in South Africa. The album won the award for the Best Kwaito Album at the 2008 Metro FM Awards and received a nomination at the 2008 Channel O Music Awards. As the opening act for the ceremony, they created an electric atmosphere that started the awards on a high note.
Rounding off the event is Sifiso Mjoli also known as DJ Fisherman, he learned to deejay in the year 2002 and started playing around the area in taverns and shows within the township. He gave himself time to master Fruity Loops and did his first track “Mhlabe”, that track was never released but it became popular in the province (KwaZulu-Natal) and gave him popularity as people wanted to know who had done the track.
