Jesus you need to see this. True 2oceansvibers who have been along for the journey will remember I used to open my live online streaming shows with Land of Hope and Glory. I never did see a video of the anthem and was blown away when I saw this. Edward Elgar’s Pomp and Circumstance Marches […]
I heard this song on the so called “radio” the other day and I remember thinking how shit it was. Of course I was referring to the actual tune, rather than the message – which has to do with begging people not to phone – something I agree with and am somewhat outspoken about.. It […]
This article and song is dedicated to all the people out there who have joined the movement to never answer unknown or private numbers on our cellphones. Ok check it out – have you heard bout the rapper by the name of Busy Signal? Absolutely no problem if you haven’t. Grab a seat and let […]
“Not bad, not bad at all..” That’s what I said to myself as I watched this little music video by a local band, based in Mpumalanga. Their explicit song about Jacob Zuma starts off: “My prezident’s a pimp, without the pink suit, with an appetite to take a bite out of the forbidden fruit.” The […]

Seriously, this will blow your mind. Yelle is a French band founded by lead singer and namesake, Yelle and GrandMarnier.

Some of you were blessed enough to have attended the Just Jinjer concert at Kirstenbosch last night. For those of you who missed it, shame. It was, honestly, one of the best concerts I have ever been to. Seriously, ask Marcus Brain about it. There’s something about being entertained by three people who are not […]

God knows how much money Puma had to pay these football hooligans to sing a “poofter” song, but whatever the case it came out bloody brilliantly! You’ll recall the 1997 Billboard #1 hit song called Truly Madly Deeply by Australian Group Savage Garden. So take that song, but get it sung in the same way […]

Someone made a very good point today (following our coverage of Die Antwoord), stating that although I have mention Jack Parow and his song “Cooler As Ekke,” and even featured the TaxiJam version, I am yet to show the original music video on 2oceansvibe.
