DJ ZINHLE NOT HEADING TO DURBAN 

DJ Zinhle pulled out of Fact Durban Rocks' Durban July event, saying she is not yet prepared to visit the city where the father of her child died.

“I cannot lie to you guys, I'm not ready for Durban. Emotionally, I'm not ready at all. I get a little anxious thinking about being in Durban. It's going to be a while before I can be in Durban.”

VUSI MA R5'S TOMBSTONE RESTORED

Vusi Ma R5's grave was vandalised weeks after he was buried at Odi Cemetery in Mabopane in January. 

Celebrating the bacardi musician's birthday on May 28, the family restored it, unveiling his new tombstone. 

“Everything went well. There were no fights, there was no chaos or anything to do with guns and everyone felt safe because the police were there. We asked them to be present at the event. The community was also helpful, they even helped to clean up after the unveiling,” Ma R5's brother Koketso “DJ Cooper” Mosoeu told TshisaLIVE.
