     The Chanique Rabe issue is actually exceptionally deep. Well, one could argue that everything is deep on industry loop.

    It warms my heart to see sons and daughters of the land of the brave dominating the nomination lists for both the Africa Choice Awards and the Zikomo Africa Awards.

    Let’s address the elephant in the room. What is the elephant in the room, you ask? Well, renowned entertainer DJ Lisch recently made it clear that she is unhappy with the lack of diversity that was cast for the Burna Boy #LoveDamini concert.

    A previous edition of Industry Loop proved a few things about us, as people. It proved that we do not know the difference between an opinion piece and an actual news article, which really is shocking because since Adam and Eve, the art of opinion has long been part and parcel of print media.

    2022-11-04  NSK
    We haven’t done an OTU list in a while. Allow me to refresh your memory on what an OTU list is. ‘On The Up’ (OTU) is an official list we publish at least three times a year.

    A recent article in a local daily about ‘D-nyce’ signing or bagging a five-year digital music distribution contract with Unchained Music really had me in shock for a couple of reasons.

    Industry Loop - Rest easy DJ Soso

    2022-12-09  NSK
    DJ Soso joins a long line of Namibian creatives who gave this country their all, but did not get the monetary appreciation and respect back from their countrymen. The fact that we have so many Namibian entertainers who have passed on without getting the respect and monetary appreciation while still alive, is exceptionally worrisome.

    I still think the industry needs an awards platform. Don’t get me wrong, I love the fact that Simply You Magazine Lifestyle and Fashion Awards are serving and now the Spectrum Awards, which is fantastic...kudos honestly. But we all know we need a national awards platform the size and magnitude of the NAMAs.

    Industry Loop - It’s been a minute

    2023-03-10  NSK
    It’s been a minute since I spoke about Namibian music or even listened to Namibian music. Namibian music has been so far down my priority list that at some point, it was just not top of mind anymore.

    Since my last edition of Industry Loop, before Arrafath’s passing…I was on a serious mission to rekindle my love for the Namibian music journey, simply because it has been a minute since I spoke about and actually listened to Namibian music.

    And we are back with Volume 3 of my annoying rekindled love for Namibian music! I really want to say that this will be the final volume in which I abuse you with my rekindled love for Namibian music, but we ‘tog’ all know what new love does to a person;

    Some would call what I’m about to express your classic textbook case of ‘dickriding’.

    The last time I dedicated a column to someone was Gazza and people called it d**kriding. Today’s edition of #IndustryLoop is dedicated to Pombili Shilongo.
