In a bid to commemorate their heritage, music legend DJ Oskido along with a group of his famous friends will be going live on TikTok to cook some proudly South African dishes that can be tried by fans at home.
“For Heritage Day, I decided to invite some of my friends in the entertainment industry to my house for lunch that is made up of food from various South African cultures. From Zakes Bantwini to Thandiswa Mazwai and Candy Tsa Mandebele, just to name a few, all of my friends are so different and come from diverse backgrounds,” he explains.
The producer behind many legendary hits adds that before the pandemic, it wasn’t always easy for all of him and his famous friends to be in one space, sharing food and laughter, at the same time. “But with the music industry being so affected by the pandemic, it’s become more and more important to me to spend time with the people I love. It’s become more important for me to celebrate this day with all of my friends in the industry so that we can share the food we grew up eating and talk about the music stories from a long time ago.” hitmaker Zakes Bantwini, Thandiswa Mazwai, Professor, Mafikizolo, Zonke, Jakarumba, Ntsika, Candy Tsa Mandebele, Brandon and Zama Khumalo.
“South African music is a big part of our heritage. So, to me, #RepYourHeritage means we’re celebrating the cultural wealth of our nation. It’s easy for us to forget where we come from and this hashtag reminds me to represent the road I have walked. “All my friends have a different cultural background and because they will be bringing dishes they grew up eating to my home, everyone gets to represent a piece of who they are,” Oskido concludes.
