International star, DJ Diplo, was living his best life before his show on Sunday and, along with enjoying the music, the DJ also seemed to enjoy the internet speed in Soweto way more than other places in Africa.

Diplo has been enjoying his tour of Africa, having performed in Nigeria, Uganda and Kenya since the start of 2017.

  • Will they ever be friends? Bonang 'refuses to be in the same room' as SomiziJust a few weeks ago Somizi went onto national TV and told the world how much he loves Bonang but that their friendship would never be the same again, even if they did reconcile. 

The DJ has been documenting his trips on social media and took to Twitter to 'commend' the internet speed he experienced in Soweto.

LTE (Long Term Evolution) is a first-generation 4G mobile communications standard which means that data is moving faster over the internet.
