Social media in South Africa erupted over the weekend when American rapper and singer-songwriter Kanye West, also known as Ye, announced that he will perform in Johannesburg later this year.

West posted a simple flyer on X, confirming a one-day concert at Ellis Park Stadium on Saturday, December 13. The announcement revealed that this will be his only South African show during the visit.

The event is organised by the Monyake Group, a leading local live-entertainment company.

Samuel Monyake, the company’s managing director, described the booking as both an artistic and spiritual decision.

“Ye’s relentless drive and ongoing spiritual journey align perfectly with our Christocentric approach,” Monyake said in an interview with Independent Media.

He added, “Our company has a long-standing tradition in gospel and faith-inspired live productions. Ye’s growth as an artist, his extensive catalogue, and global appeal match our mission to deliver culturally significant and spiritually uplifting experiences on a stadium scale.”

According to Monyake, the concert is intended to achieve more than just a one-night performance.

“This event is a catalyst for South Africa’s music industry,” he said. “Our goal is to use this platform to regularly bring international A-list artists to South African stadiums and showcase African creativity to the world. It is the first step in a five-year strategy to make South Africa a regular stop on global tours rather than a one-off destination.”

Bringing West to Johannesburg shows what the company’s hopes to achieve in the future.

“Our mission has always been to elevate South Africa’s live entertainment scene by producing events that are both spectacular and meaningful,” Monyake said.

Published

Cardi B is back with a bang. On Friday, September 19, 2025, the rapper finally dropped her long-awaited album, Am I the Drama?, and it didn’t take long to make history. Within just hours of release, the project was certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), making it the fastest female album ever to reach that milestone.

 

This is Cardi’s follow-up to her 2018 debut, Invasion of Privacy, which first put her on the map as a global star. The new album, released under Atlantic Records, is packed with big-name collaborations, including Megan Thee Stallion, Summer Walker, Selena Gomez, Tyla, Kehlani, Lizzo, Janet Jackson, and more.

The title, Am I the Drama?, came from the mix of personal drama Cardi has faced over the years and also from a viral meme in the Drag Race community, originally said by Scarlet Envy. Cardi even confirmed that she and Scarlet have something in the works together.

 

The album itself doesn’t shy away from controversy. Some songs take direct shots at rivals and critics, while others pry into her personal life. 

 

Fans had been waiting years for this moment, with countless delays, online rants, and endless speculation about whether the album would ever arrive. But Cardi delivered, and the results speak for themselves.
