Yall if U are in Cape Town on 30 November and want to know more about the music biz and how it operates make a turn at this conference. There are some amazing speakers & it should make for an amazing interchange of ideas. Organised by my dear friend @MartinMyers 🙏🏼 @musicexchange
Last night on @KayaON959 I spoke about the recently hosted SAMA Awards on Point of View hosted by @PhemeloMotene, whilst listening to some highlight performance from the evening. Here is the podcast. Hope you enjoy 😉 iono.fm/e/1502763
The concept for this horror movie is quite cool, about these possessed animatronic bears, but the story becomes a little convoluted and it sort of loses focus toward the end. I would have liked to know more of the back story. It was ok, but not brilliant.
Wow, this is an awful Christmas album. Lea Michele has a Disney Princess type of voice, but in the most annoying and not good kind of way. The whole album is just cringe. The song choices were also predictable and boring and the arrangements were bland. Just a big NO from me.
To celebrate reaching 500,000 views, I revisited my roots by writing this @Medium article on the history of the Academy of Sound Engineering. While I didn’t study there, I studied at Allenby Campus—the place where it all began. Hope you enjoy it 😉 medium.com/@shelrochaleal…
Love the concept behind these albums, which saw artists contributing songs to raise money for the Special Olympics. The iconic artist, Keith Haring, even designed the cover for the albums. My favorite track is “Christmas All Over Again” by @tompetty and The Heartbreakers.
Just finished watching this mini-series. Kate Winslet was exceptional on the show. The storyline was initially brilliant, but it doesn’t end well. That being said, I really enjoyed this one.
This was a Covid 19 season of “Survivor”. I felt that the producers tried to build too many twists into the game. It was, however, as enjoyable as ever. One of my most favourite television series.
I love Train, but as for this Christmas album, it’s a big NO. The band just didn’t capture the essence of Christmas. The phrasing and melodies were off on some of the classics and for me that takes away from the songs. I just don’t think Rock acts translate well into Christmas🎄
This morning I had the opportunity to discuss the life and legacy of the oracle of music, @QuincyDJones, but this time on @Radio702 on the @GugsM Show in “The Music Corner”. Here is the podcast👇🏼hope you enjoy 😉 primediaplus.com/the-legacy-of-…
Today was my 25th interview on @Radio702 and we spoke about the legacy of the iconic Quincy Jones, a week after his passing. Was so nice to finally meet Comfort and @GugsM in person after all this time.
Congratulations to @wouterkellerman, @Trevornoah and @Sowetogospel for their nominations for the 2025 @RecordingAcad 🙌🏼 This is another amazing achievement and recognition of your hard work and commitment to your craft 🙌🏼
Last night on @KayaON959 @PhemeloMotene and I reflected on the life and legacy of the recently departed musical legend @QuincyDJones on her show “Point Of View”. #ThanksForTheMemories and #ThankYouForTheMusic iono.fm/e/1500477
This album by @leonbridges, “Leon”, is exceptional. I heard the spirit of Sade and John Mayer on this album, but done in a way only Leon can do it. Leon cited Van Morrison as an influence of this album. If you looking for something smooth, this is it 🙌🏼
If poetry is your thing, this is the one. @Siphokazi_J’s needs book, published by @penguinrandom
Another fascinating look into one of the great palaces of the world. It seems that King Charles wants to open the palace to the public and turn it into a museum as the refurbishment costs are going to be astronomical.
The lady of the hour, the award winning poet @Siphokazi_J launching her book 🙌🏼 by @penguinrandom
What am I doing tonight? Why I’m at the launch of the new @Siphokazi_J book launch. Well done on the realise of your book through @penguinrandom
Just finished listening to Kaiser Chiefs’ 8th album. Although there were some brilliant songs on this album, I just felt that it was not as cohesive as some of their previous offerings. Not a bad album, but not brilliant either. Favorite track: “How 2 Dance”.
Society often limits people to a basic yes or no responses to anything. Life & career are, however, more complex than that & the most successful creatives look beyond the basic “yes/no” for solutions. This is my latest @Medium article reflecting on this 😉 medium.com/@shelrochaleal…
