Many Tweeps have taken to Twitter to share their two cents on the matter of the fraud relating to the actress. Just a few weeks ago Terry commented that she is afraid of South African men in relation to the kidnappings and murders of many young kids. People are shocked that the actress acted as if she would not hurt a fly when she was stealing money with her friends. Some are even saying that she was not acting in Tsotsi but showing the world who she really is. The actress is yet to release a statement addressing the allegations but for now, she is mum over it.

King Monada’s age left Mzansi as he celebrates his birthday

King Monada is celebrating his birthday, and he has since left fans in shock when they get to know his age. King Monada is one of those artists who know how to trend and has since become an incredible artist. A few months ago, he had been trending after he hinted that he wanted to fight Big Zulu in a boxing match. Indeed that did not come out to fruition, but it was a match of extremes that fans would have loved to watch.


 

 

 
The Malwedhe hitmaker showed how much he grew as an artist after showing Mzansi his Limpopo mansion. As if that was not enough, he threw an extensive, expensive, viral party. A few weeks ago, he continued with the mansion development when he constructed a beautiful swimming pool at the mansion. Indeed, King Monada is a man on a mission.

Judging from the looks, King Monada is a tall and slim man whom one would imagine to be in his late twenties. If we compare him to some artists like Cassper Nyovest and Big Zulu, one would imagine he is way younger than them. Unfortunately, King Monada is way older than both Big Zulu and Cassper. He fits in the age group of DJ Tira better than Cassper.

How come he looks young? King Monada’s age shocks Mzansi as she celebrates his birthday

Mzansi is shocked by King Monada’s age as he celebrates his birthday.
On the 5th of November in Limpopo, a boy was born and named Khutso Steven Kgatle. Today the whole country knows him as King Monada, and he is celebrating his 41st birthday. Many congratulatory messages are flowing from many fans and fellow celebs. The entire nation is happy and wishes him a happy birthday, but there remains a hanging question. Is King Monada that old?

King Monada rose to fame in early 2016, and many fans imagined him as an upcoming artist as young as others who grew up with him. Indeed this has proved wrong, as King Monada is older than many imagined. He looked young, and he took a long to rise to fame, making fans see him with the eye of a boy.

Other artists who rose to fame at a later age

Across the country, we have seen many young talents growing up like Nkosazana Daughter. We have also seen some late bloomers who took the world, which is the group King Monada belongs to. Big Zulu is the other musician who had to wait until his thirties to be recognised as a star in Mzansi. Dr Malina is another musician who took a long time to rise to fame.

In past interviews, Mhlongo has also shared that there was a point in his life where he was checking for change in couches, he did not have money for bread.

Recently on an interview with 947 FM, Mhlongo admitted that during his broke days he would do anything for money, he added he would ‘tap a girl’.

“When you’re broke anything goes. Me, during those three years, I would have tapped a girl. When you’re broke and you take drugs, you become broker. You know, you become brokest. I know for a fact now, for the past year, I am the biggest personality. I may not be the richest but I’m ranked there” said Mhlongo

Skeem Saam actor Leeto Maputla involved in sad car accident

Eric Macheru, who plays Leeto Maputla on the popular SABC 1 drama series Skeem Saam, was in a car accident not long ago. The incident occurred not long ago.

An individual on Twitter by the name of Refilwe Maleka made the accusation that the actor was drinking and driving at the time of the incident that resulted in the accident. She stated that Macheru had hit another vehicle and attempted to depart the site of the accident after the collision. It appears that he hit her car while he was backing up, which resulted in more damage.

The Twitter user went on to reveal that she was travelling with her twin infants, who were just six months old at the time, but fortunately, neither of them was hurt. Refilwe uploaded footage on social media showing the crash site, in which her Mazda and Macheru’s automobile were both damaged.

Her assertion is that the actor did not collaborate with the insurance firm she works with. She claims that she was required to pay for the damages, despite the fact that the actor has not taken any action. It seems that Macheru’s car sustained significant damage, and he does not have insurance on it.

This is not the only incident involving a celebrity that has occurred in recent times. Mpura, Killer Kau, DJ TD, and Thando Tot were all outstanding musicians who passed away recently, and they were all lost to the Amapiano industry. The musicians were on their way to perform at a venue in Rutenburg when their vehicle was involved in a collision with the vehicle of another man who was a firefighter.

SME, the record label to which they were signed and which made the announcement of their death, reported that their families had received the call on August 9.

“It is with a heavy heart that we must inform you of the passing of three people who were associated with the Soweto-based record label SMEA, which was an influential record label. The band was on their way to play a show in Rustenburg, and there were other musicians in the car with them. Killer Kau, a hitman and a co-pioneer of the Amapiano culture, was a participant in this tragic incident. Thando Tot was his DJ, and TD was the official road manager for SMEA. Mpura Mpura was an artist, and The Voice was Mpura’s DJ. There was also one other female “.

Additionally, it was stated not too long ago that Zuma and Reece Madlisa were engaged in a car accident. Their followers were anxious as a result of this, but the duo’s manager, Archie Basile, stated unequivocally to the Daily Sun that the artists were not in the vehicle at the time of the collision. It was their driver who was in the car when the accident took place, and thank goodness he is okay and was able to walk away from it without any injuries.

“The accident involved our bus, not us personally. The driver was the only person in the vehicle, but he walked away unscathed. Both Reece and Zuma were absent from the vehicle. When the accident occurred, he had just stepped out of his house on his way to come and get us. “I realise people are anxious, but we are all well, no one was wounded,” Basile stated in the message. “I apologise for any concern this may have caused.

MAKHADZI PUTS THE RECORD ON THE LINE

Makhadzi was recently accused of “stealing” and remixing a song from Malawi called Milandu Mbwee. The original version of the song was produced by Mkulu Keyi and featured the renowned Nepman and Kay Nine. Makhadzi was accused of doing both of these things.

Through her Facebook page, Makhadzi clarified the situation by stating that the song in question had been published for the first time by Papa Penny in the year 1994.


 

 

 

She took a trip down memory lane and stated that the song Milandu is one of her favourites because her father used to play it quite often when she was growing up.

Makhadzi stated that because it is her all-time favourite song, she has decided to do a remake of the song in the Makhadzi style, of course with Papa Penny’s blessing. Makhadzi’s version will be available on the Makhadzi album.

Before I was even conceived, Papa Penny had already published the song “Milandu Bhe” in 1994. Milandu Bhe ended up becoming my all-time favourite song because my dad had his CDs and played his music rather frequently. “When I heard the beat, the first words that sprang to mind were Milandu bhe, and I called him for a remake of the song the Makhadzi style, and he approved..l respect the legends who opened up paths for us new artists,” Makhadzi wrote in his autobiography.

In the meantime, this is not the first time that Makhadzi has been accused of stealing a song from Malawi; previous allegations have been made against him.

Another Malawian musician by the name of Scrafoc issued a legal threat against her in June of this year, accusing her of copying the song “Ma gear.”

However, when many saw similarities between the songs, South Africans hastened to defend Makhadzi, insisting that she had not stolen the tune from Scrafoc even though there were similarities between the songs.

They said that a musician from Limpopo had merely turned a well-known South African chant into a song, and that this was their argument.

On the other hand, many in South Africa have accused Scrafoc of trying to sell his own song by capitalising on the popularity of Makhadzi’s. Some people also made the ridiculous accusation that the Malawian musician was the one who stole Makhadzi’s tune.
