Lifestyle & Entertainment

You only (youth) once

This June we're celebrating millennials and Gen Z with Bizcommunity's #YouthMonth content theme. We kick things off in Lifestyle with some top teen talent; I interview the girls from Afro-pop band Kwini Kuza and co-founder of fashion label, RedThread Apparel X.

While in other top story news, Leigh Andrews attends the "fulfilling" Test Kitchen X Langa' pop-up charity event, Terry Levin goes on the hunt for good branding at the recent Good Food & Wine Show and Martin Myers interviews music legend, Chris Chameleon.

Tickets are still up for grabs for the Good Food and Wine Show in Joburg!

Stay safe, stay warm!
