Here's a peek at the top stories that made headlines this week:

LEBO M'S 'DIVORCE' 

Having tied the knot eight times, composer Lebo Morake is seen as a man who is not afraid of marriage despite many failures. 

This week the producer, affectionately known as Lebo M, announced he was in the process of getting a divorce from his wife Pretty Samuels Morake after a year of marriage.

The 59-year-old did not publicly disclose what led to the fallout, saying it was a private matter. 

“I will not be drawn into salacious allegations and innuendos about my business and personal life. I will be going ahead with the divorce and have already instructed my attorneys,” he said.  

NASTY C'S UNBORN BABY'S NAME

Nasty C has seemingly revealed the name of his unborn baby.

In a recent post, the rapper shared a screenshot of an unreleased song titled Dear Oliver with a family emoji amid anticipation of his new album. 

TONY FORBES ON HIS SON'S MURDER INVESTIGATION

Tony Forbes is still processing his son's death.

With the murder of Kiernan “AKA” Forbes still under investigation, Tony said he's trying to be patient to ensure the process is thorough and justice is done. 

“There are days where one hopes to hear the news that something happened. But we still want to give the process space. We are in touch with investigators and they keep us abreast. It does seem slow, but it has only [been] six months.”

He admitted that while some people might have mixed feelings seeing him going to Soho Night Club, Drama Bar Lounge or Coco, it has been a part of his grieving.

MACG PROPOSES

MacG asked his long-time partner Naledi to marry him in front of scores of people on Sunday night.

The Podcast and Chill: Road to 1-million live event at the SunBet Arena in Pretoria was filled with chillers, many of whom have been loyal supporters of the podcast since it launched.
