Dance, A Message Deliverer

Dance is a way of life, a talent and way of expression. Sometimes where words are not enough to express how one feel or how one want things do be understood, dance can be the way do do it and send a clear message to those it is suppose to reach.

The Super Geeks The Genesis have their way of expression and they are really good at it. They dance to minister to the people about God. Gone are the days where preaching is enough to spread the word, dance is another way. They believe that they can change the world through dance which they call "Visual speech linguists". The group comprises of Nigel Christnificent, David Cooper, Nkosi Tyler, Midiah M avawani and Pasha Titan from Cowdry Park.

The Super Geeks from Bulawayo performed at the Jibilika Cypher performance center, wher youth come together and showcase their talent. They also battle with Antivirus in Bulawayo Theatre during Miss Professional.

Sometimes when you watch a dance movie on television, you may have doubts of whether the movements are real but seeing it live just makes you appreciate it even more.

 You can access all their dance videos on their facebook page.

TEENWOLF 5 Coming Soon

teen wolf crew
Supernatural serial programs have been for quite some time calling and getting more of an audience. I am one of the many people who love to sit in front of the screen and be lost in fictional movies and series program.

Teenwolf, from a list of Vampire diaries, Supernatural to mention but a few has made me an obedient follower. Like the other top sellers, Teenwolf manages to bring out new and very fascinating characters and monsters that keep you glued and on the edge. 


From season one to season 4, Teenwolf has managed to improve in all aspects, although some characters we had grown to love did not stare in all seasons, some managesd to resurrect for example KATE. Season 5 will have all our major characters coming. Dereck aka Tyler Hoechlin however will not be oftenly seen on screen. TEENWOLF will have 20episodes which is a bonus from the previous 12 episodes.

5 Things I expect from season 5

1.We have to be introduced to the desert wolf because everyone has been searching for HER. yes it is a      she.

2. Malia and Stiles must have more romantic scenes because they look cut together.

3. We should see how powerful Derek has become especially now that he can transform into an actual wolf.

4. What is going to happen to Peter?

5. Kate must face the consequences of trying to destroy the True Alpha.

SOLAR POWERED PLANE A REALITY

SOLAR STRATOS
We live in a generation where inventions and technology advances on a daily basis. If you close your eyes for a minute, you might actually miss out on some of the coolest invention that have ever been made. and the best one yet is the plane that flies purely on solar energy. 

Now how cool is that. although technically it was first thought of in 2012, several test drives have been performed and so far, it has been a success.


The solar powered plane will be a break through for the world at large because it will only run on the most natural source of power, the sun. People may have a question on whether the plane will be able to fly if there is cloud cover. Yes it can, the panel absorbs and stores the energy allowing it to fly even at night.

The solar plane that has been taken for a test drive or is it test flight can only carry two passengers. this may be a disappointment to those who may be interested in flying in one. So far we can only experience the flight through the two pilots who recently took it for a spin.

The aircraft recently landed in Oman and in it was a businessman and pilot Andre Borschberg and Piccard.
A Borschberg and B Piccard

The smiles on their faces is evidence that they had enjoyed their flight and are looking forward to the next flight.

DOROBUCCI crew the next best crew

,D Prince,Don Jazzy, Tiwa Savage and Dr Sid
Nothing beats the product of collaboration. The song dorobucci has been played oftenly on radio since last year and it continues to be the most played song in most teenage parties in Zimbabwe. The song came to being after a 7 members of the Mavins crew came together and I must say their collabo was quite a success.

The success of the song can be also compared to the success o some of the most popular crews for instance young money. Young money comprises of one of the best artists in the music business and Mavins crew also comprises of one of the best African artists(Nigeria). The crew is said to be led by Don Jazzy who features with P-Squared in the song 'Collabo'. That video is definately something.

Over the years members of the dorobucci crew have made quite a reputation in the music business with some even being nominated for awards in different Awards. Tiwa Savage also known as Tiwatope Savage Balogun for instance was nominated in 2014 for the BET Awards and one MTV Africa Awards. 

The Dorobucci crew comprises of Don Jazzy a music producer and also a singer, Tiwa Savage who is the current Nigerian RnB queen. Jazzy and Savage produced several songs together, including Eminado which was a hit last year. Charles Enebeli also known as D prince Don Jazzy's young brother. Dr Sid and yes he is a doctor and he particularly a certified dentist, Reekado Banks, Di Ja who signed with Mavins in 2013 and Korede Bello also nicknamed the 'African Prince'. 






What makes Korean drama so unique.

From the moment I started watching Korean drama K culture, I had a reason to stay glued on and become a loyal follower. The main reason being their ability to entertain and also give a full insight of their culture and way of life.

This is in reference to the cultural Korean drama that they air oftenly. Their modern themed dramas are also entertaining. Even if I am not any close to speaking a full sentence in Korean, my personal favourite word that I do not miss a chance of including in my sentences once in a while. 'AIGOO'

Even if the world is generally prefers to broadcast in English, all the Korean dramas i have watched have been in their language and that sets them apart from the rest.

Sungkyunkwan Scandal
Culture nowadays has been globalised but to see  nation that takes pride in theirs even until today is really refreshing. Most cultural practices have diverged and the world almost has the same practices. But their ability to capture the cultural set up and make it understandable to foreigners is really out of the ordinary.

Korean dramas that got me saying 'AIGOO'


Jewel in the palace

Sungkyunkwan Scandal
Its amazing how much a girl can be transformed to look like a guy. The scandal in this movie is that a girl enrolled herself in a boys institution. It had me fooled the first time I saw that character. This drama highlights the struggle of women to be empowered in the community and it clearly sends a message that what a man can do a woman can do.


Jewel in the Palace 
This is one of the longest Korean dramas I have ever watched. I loved how 'Dang Jung Geum' always pushed through with the challenges she faced. Definately empowering for ladies.

Faith
The moon embracing the sun
If you want to get an insight on how politics and power works, watch this one.The moon embracing
Faith
This drama has Lee Min Ho as the lead actor and he never disappoints considering the reputation from City hunter. Its a cultural based doctor and warrior romance.
