This excellent television commercial for Samsung’s Smart TV range demands to be watched, because it features a stampede of Wildebeest, a rampaging T-Rex, and an alien invasion – all couched within the familiar architecture of Cape Town’s CBD.
“Emma…” Do you know one of those condescending twerps who smirks whenever you read a book, print a page, write something one a note pad – their tablet in hand? Are you one of those condescending twerps? Do you use an iPad when you run out of toilet paper? Obviously not. This rad TV ad […]

After 10 weeks of awesome online content, we’re finally at the finale of Tropika’s Kagiso’s Island of Treasure web series and the last episode finishes things off on a nice, quiet note. Kagiso tracks down his crew and takes a final trip to the Ocho Rios dolphin cove. While when the show kicked off I […]
When last week’s episode ended with Kagiso’s crew walking out on him in the midst of one of his little tirades, I was convinced this week’s episode would take us back to the look & feel of Episode 1. I was expecting silly physical humour. Boy was I wrong. The second last episode of Kagiso’s […]
Okay, look, it isn’t very funny to poke fun at hipsters anymore, seeing as the term is roughly 40 years old already. Apart from that, it has been done to death. You can’t even poke fun at hipsters in an ironic, self-reflexive way anymore. So this video is really late to the party, and should […]
Liqui-Fruit has released a new BlackBerry flavour, and to promote it they’ve made excellent use of an extended visual pun, working off the base that BlackBerry is the name of a famous cell phone brand, but also happens to be a fruit (and fruit juice flavour). Thus spake the Liqui-Fruit brand manager, Karen Veysey: To […]
One of the few things pretty much everyone in the world knows about Jamaica is that it produced Bob Marley, who sported the world’s most famous dreadlocks and also made some music you may be familiar with.

The SANBS has less blood in it than a character with a high fever from a Victorian novel. Blood shortage is a chronic, and very serious problem in South Africa. The problem is, it’s a hard task getting us to care about the situation. We’re currently rolling with 2,6 days worth of reserve stock – […]
I’ve been waiting weeks and finally it’s here: in Episode 7 of Kagiso’s Island of Treasure, Kagiso Lediga finally goes head to head with Jamaican Olympian Yohan “The Beast” Blake! I’ve been hoping for weeks that he’d be bringing his sharpest one-liners to this particular interview and he doesn’t disappoint in this extended interview. Yohan […]

In this week’s episode of Kagiso’s Island of Treasure, the comedian hits up popular Kingston restaurant Grill 71 to try out some Jamaican cuisine.

Last week’s Kagiso’s Island of Treasure was all about Kagiso Lediga dipping his toes into the Jamaican dance scene and in this week’s episode he dives headfirst into their musical culture. Tessanne Chin is a popular Jamaican singer who has sang alongside the likes of Celine Dion – which means about as much to Kagiso […]
