I was somewhat bowled over the other day when I learnt that a number of my friends and loved ones were yet to see the music video for Eminem’s hit We Made You. I would just like to fix that, right now. It’s awesome and I want you all to watch it. He pushed it […]
2oceansvibe was selected as the official exclusive release site in South Africa for the new James Blunt video for his single, Stay The Night. It’s off his new album, Some Kind Of Trouble. Check it out: James Blunt – Stay The Night (Muzu) Alright, so there you have it! So what do you think?
My God but the internet is on form today. It delivered unto me an email from Devon someone or other, to do with “hipster bashing.” Well, well, well, I thought to myself. What do we have here? I gave it a whirl and, JEEPERS HUDDERS, it is something quite special. I’m sure some of it […]
Popular South African band, Freshly Ground, have suffered a potentially massive blow to their revenue stream after the Zimbabwean authorities banned the group from traveling or performing in Zimbabwe.
We’ve got a fairly massive story that has just broken. Ard Matthews from Just Jinjer chopped off his famous dreadlocks this weekend after losing a bet. Check this out: You know what this means – anyone attending his concert on Thursday with Theo Crous, Vusi motherfreaking Mahlasela, Plush, iScream, Jack Mantis, Louise Day (smoking hot) […]
Occasionally, when I’m not rocking out to AC/DC, I look around and realise that there’s more to life than three-chord, blues based hard rock. There are also bands that don’t seem to conform to any particular genre, bands that invade our collective consciousness through their sheer force of creativity – their sounds so fresh and […]
If you don’t know about this yet, you’re probably the last person – so I’m glad to be of service! This, from JustJared : Check out this new song from Cee Lo Green! Cee Lo Green takes off into the stratosphere! The insanely catchy “F— You,” which has logged over 4 million views on YouTube, […]
We’ll be giving you the exclusive music video very soon, but, in the meantime you can get a sneak preview of Goldfish’s AWESOME new track, Get Busy Living! Check it out below! (press play). Get busy living featuring Emily Bruce (Radio edit) webclip by Goldfishlive I like it. I like it a LOT! If you […]
We were chatting about Heather Graham and her “Roller Girl” character from the movie Boogie Nights (starring Mark Wahlberg) the other day on 2oceansvibe Radio and, more to the point, the fact that her parents no longer speak to her. They’re very religious, you see, and apparently that is somehow linked to their disapproval of […]
Just when you thought the joke was about to get tired, someone brings out another Jay Z / Alicia Keys New York State Of Mind rip-off, and absolutely kills it! This one is to do with online entrepreneurs, “startups” and social media in general. It is so goddamn brilliant and funny I might urge you […]
The greatest Canadian scourge since Brandon Huntley Celine Dion, Justin Bieber stirs grown men to panic. The vapid, androgynous, lesbo-chic music has taken the pubescent world by storm, and the boy girl with the pudding bowl kop chop seems to wield genuine power. As demonstrated by his latest foray into social networking, where he tweeted […]
If you don’t know about Chat Roulette by now, you are not only very emboerrissing, but you are also missing out on one of my greatest inventions. We have already featured it a number of times on these hallowed pages – including David Thorne’s own experiences with said “portal.” I’d check that one out if […]
What do you get when you combine rape, ghetto smack talk, potentially gay men, and Auto Tunes? No, the answer is NOT “Kuilsriver”. That’s not amusing. Shame on you. The correct answer would be: “Greatest DIY Ghetto Anthem of All Time”, or alternatively, “Eat Your Heart Out, Die Antwoord”. Here’s a little illuminating background info […]
We’re pretty blown away by the response to the “Seth Song” we’ve been playing fairly regularly, over at 2oceansvibe Radio. It’s not only a damn funny tune, but I tell you what – it’s got the heads bopping too! Apparently The Assembly lost their minds to it last Saturday! The guys behind the tune are […]
Everyone is loving the new “Love the way you lie” track by Eminem, featuring Rihanna. God knows we can’t get enough of it at 2oceansvibe Radio. Well anyways they’ve just released the HD version of the music video and I was just wondering, were you aware that it features Megan Fox? No, neither did I. […]
A lot of people get quite angry with Keane, especially in England where they hate the fact that they went to private schools and the fact that lead singer Tom Chaplin’s cheeks are too rosy and he seems like a bit of a choir boy – despite upping his rock n’ roll credentials with a […]
The more awesome of you will recall the mention we gave to the song “Island State Of Mind” which was a spoof of Jay-Z and Alicia Keys’ hit “New York State Of Mind.” Instead of being all about New York, the content had to do with Tasmania – a rather humorous take of Tasmania too, […]
I haven’t quite gotten over the fact that the word is pronounced “Karee Yokee,” and yet there is no “e” in the middle. But that aside, karaoke fansd and general trickster will enjoy this little video, sent in by one of our fortitudinous LSM 12-14 readers. The video features US songstress, Jewel (would you?), in […]
Full time human being impersonator, Gwyneth Paltrow, has given us all a perfectly-weighted surprise (shocks are never perfect) by perfectly capably singing an authentic-sounding but none-too abrasive country music song. It’s titled Country Strong. She reportedly recorded the song as part of the sound track to one or other upper-middle tier blockbuster film about a […]
I don’t know how this one slipped through the radar. Just when I thought people weren’t churning out 100% pure uncut humour anymore, this Ben Folds vide from 2006 surfaces. It’s got him covering the song “Bitches Aint Shit” – the hard-core rap song originally by Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg. But he didn’t just […]
You hear the news? Multi-talented musician and purveyor of all things chilled, Wyclef Jean, is perhaps, potentially, maybe, could-be, considering running as a presidential candidate in the forthcoming Haitian elections. Apparently he’s been tempted to run because of a grassroots youth following lobbying strongly for his political voice in that country. It’s called Face to […]
Simon Cowell is a news maker. He’s made his mark by being the asshole judge on shows like Idols, America’s Got Talent, and Britain’s Got Talent. More importantly, he’s earned the reputation of an asshole who very seldom makes a bad call. So some might regard the man to be evil, others may hold the […]
Just yesterday I received an email from a reader saying they watched Just Jinjer in Johannesburg who had this to say: “holy shitballs they rocked amazing stage presence I went with some music mates and they must have creamed their pants several times…especially when they did that water and ice drum solo…INSANE..” Now you don’t […]
You know AB De Villiers, the South African cricket team’s star batsman? Well, he’s singing now – the recorded kind. And, best of all, he’s making music videos for his moer lekker treffers. In his powerful ballad, titled Maak Jou Drome Waar (“Make Your Dreams Come True), AB teams up with previously obscure but presumably […]
2oceansvibe Radio has the great honour of hosting South Africa’s leading cellist, Carol Thorns, for even a brief few moments at an upcoming media launch. And whilst I might be fully aware of her talents, and the fact that she is heading to the Edinburgh Festival (25 shows!), I had no idea that she was […]
My GOD, I loved ninja stars as a child! It’s been so long and what better way for the beautiful stars of death to be reintroduced into my life, than in the new Brandon Flowers (The Killers lead singer) solo music video. And not only are they featured in the video, but it’s got Charlize […]
Cape Town vibers, a little blue bird told me that South African muso Farryl Purkiss will be playing an exclusive, intimate gig at a chilled, private venue on the Atlantic Seaboard this evening. The first five vibers to email me (correct email after jump) get their name on the list, as well as the details […]
Remember that band that made that sick “My Cape Town” song? The one that went viral and brought down the Seacom cable? Ja, that one. Ok, it didn’t really bring down Seacom, but it did manage to get Helen Zille to comment on their Facebook page. We’ve also featured it a couple of times on […]
The smaller half of Die Antwoord’s vocal duo, Yolandi Vi$$er, has just klapped Hollywood in the hol, ek se. She was approached by some corporate naaiers who tjooned her to play the main betty in a movie-film version of Stieg Larsson’s The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. Moreover, my pedigree chums, the film is to […]
I was born and raised on the North Shore of Oahu, Hawaii. At 17 I was the youngest invitee to make the finals at the Pipeline Masters. A week later my career as a pro surfer ended when an accident at the Pipeline put 150 stitches in my head. So, I turned to music and […]
