People are gay you guys. Rappers. Football players. Rugby players. Soccer players. Politicians. Pastors. Criminals. Your fixation on homosexual allegations is so weird(homophobic) in the face of a bigger sexual assault issue. Like calm down.
I identify with summer walker. I feel like y'all need to be better consumers. Change the standards. Artists are human beings. You can't expect a gyrating spectacle when someone is ailing, no matter how professional they are, it's never fair and hardly possible without substances
ISIBAYA. I’ll arrive an innocent Zulu boy who’s hired to drive Mpiyakhe’s taxis. I’m timid and fragile, and everyone grows very fond of me. Meanwhile I’ve decided that uMpiyakhe ngiyamfuna. I seduce him. I make sure he always catches the lace peeping through my Brentwood.
ISICHITHO is a spiritual disease that, upon contact with your spiritual body, triggers indiscriminate excretory functions. This means that even when productive things like opportunities, money, companionship etc. come into your metaphysical field of awareness, they are excreted.
There’s a KZN dpt of health van parked just outside our house, testing the community for covid. Did my gran not want to slaughter a chicken for the health workers ngoba “zizodlani ley’ngane?”
I’m just reminded of the outrage when non-American black people play American roles meanwhile this problematic representation is viewed as a classic to them to the point where they created a sequel for “nostalgia”...
I don’t like how you’ve encoded negativity into the term “Twitter Sangomas”. Izangoma eziningi have used this platform to demystify a lot of things and provide very valuable guidance FOR FREE. Nani do the work and stop treating their profession like a gratifying birth chart app.
Starting to think the majority of black leaders who liberated “their people” only did it to liberate themselves and affirm their own exceptionalism. They loot funds meant for the survival and advancement of people, kill them when they exercise their rights.
The people y’all bash and call “braam kids” are the same people you’ll be congratulating in a few years time for winning the LVMH Prize, or any other esteemed international accolade that finally makes their brilliance legible to you.
You are telling a generation that lost their parents, mostly to the HIV/AIDS epidemic and the violence of existing black, that this new pandemic severely affects their grandparents who ended up raising them. This is a lot. This is unfair.
UMSAMO and the Genetics of Destiny
There are multiple layers to Umsamo. On a basic level, it’s a designated room or area in a household that acts as a shrine and a portal to connect to the other world in which our ancestors operate.
Duduzane represents the Midrandy Mr Smeg GTi Driving Red Couches Protein Shake demographic of South African masculinity which is literally the pinnacle of masculinity in the Ah
I’m not going to stop being a lover. If I have to hold back in order to love you, if an integral and very real part of me has to be suspended as part of the rules of our engagement, then I don’t want it. I don’t want love that integrates death of any kind into its negotiations.
You know that feeling when you can slowly start to envision a life under different circumstances after suffering endlessly? Entertain that feeling. That’s the faith that will greet your new reality at the door when it does arrive.
Please love each other in whatever way you can. Celebrate the little things. It’s not possible for everyone to have money in the most unequal society in the world and that shouldn’t dictate how worthy you are of being loved. Love hard, love with your chest. Make love love again.
This is actually the thing I desire most in a relationship. Romantic or otherwise. I’m not after grand displays of affection or movie love. Just see me. That’s the foundation to being treated well. Nothing more isolating than not being perceived adequately by the people you love.
This year has been a lot. I got signed. My album was reissued in vinyl. Sold out in most stores. Released visuals for Tavern Kween. Got playlisted on BBC Radio 6 A-list. Ngithwasile. Played a sold out headline show in Berlin. On the cover of Kaleidoscope Mag. I’m grateful.
Get information. Read about the things you love. Learn about the places you dream of occupying. Train your higher consciousness to see further, to see bigger. Give your spirit all the shades and hues because your awareness forms the palette that brings your visions to life.
I’ve been building a secret empire with things I accumulated from dating taxi bosses namagintsa over the years. I run this operation le bo chommie. We speak isingqumo (a queer Zulu dialect) and we know our way around guns and men. Asisabi lutho and we are plotting to strike back.
