Get It Off Your Chest

As South Africa stands on the threshold of a pivotal democratic moment, the weight of our collective future rests in our hands, and in our hearts. Ahead of tomorrow's elections, we were deeply blessed to have Pastor Pushie lead us in a powerful, unifying prayer for the nation.

From praying for wisdom, discernment, and integrity at the polls, to lifting up leaders, communities, and a spirit of absolute peace across the country, this moment serves as a reminder that faith and civic duty go hand in hand. Elections are more than a political proces, they are a crucial chapter in shaping the justice, growth, and hope of our society.

Siphamandla Mnqayi, popularly known as Chef DJ, brings his energy to the Big Breakfast Mix this morning. At just 25, the Empangeni born DJ and producer has already come a long way since a cousin introduced him to house music at the age of 12, starting out on iCora FM in 2014 and winning the Rock EMP competition hosted by House of Shaka, which opened doors to collaborations with established artists.

A Studio Work diploma graduate from Central Johannesburg College, Chef DJ secured a distribution deal with Africori and released several singles, as well as his EP Zamokuhle, which has racked up over 56,000 streams across digital platforms. Now building a name in Johannesburg’s entertainment scene for his energetic performances and ability to connect with a crowd, this is a talent to watch. Turn it up.
