  • Culture of South Africa
    Culture of South Africa From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Zulus in Natal Castle of Good Hope, the oldest colonial building in South Africa The culture of South Africa is known for its ethnic and cultural diversity. The South African black majority still has a substantial number of rural inhabitants who lead largely impoverished lives. It is among these people, however, that cultural traditions survive most strongly; as blacks have become increasingly urbanised and Westernised, aspects of traditional culture have declined. Urban blacks usually speak English or Afrikaans in addition to their native tongue. There are smaller but still significant groups of speakers of Khoisan languages who are not included in the eleven official languages, but are one of the eight other officially recognised languages. There are small groups of speakers of endangered languages, most of which are from the Khoi-San family, that receive no official status; however, some groups within South Africa are attempting to promote their use and revival. Members of middle class, who are predominantly white but whose ranks include growing numbers of black, coloured and Indian people, have lifestyles similar in many respects to that of people found in Western Europe, North America and Australasia. Members of the middle class often study and work abroad for greater exposure to the markets of the world. Indian South Africans preserve their cultural heritage, languages and religious beliefs, being either Christian, Hindu or Muslim and speaking English, with Indian languages like Hindi, Telugu, Tamil or Gujarati being spoken less frequently as second languages. The first Indians arrived on the Truro ship as indentured labourers in Natal to work the Sugar Cane Fields, while the rest arrived as traders.

  • Grls Are Hard at Work on a Full-Length Album
    G.R.L. — Bio Girls rock life. In a world where bullying runs rampant and society places seemingly impossible pressures on women to be everyday superheroes, G.R.L. is geared up to greet the masses with a fun, fresh spin on pop music that speaks to today’s generation. Rising from a soft whisper to a deafening roar, the newly formed dance-pop quintet possesses an undeniable vocal chemistry reminiscent of a modern-day Supremes. Blend their naturally melodic harmonization with show- stopping dance moves and an unbreakable bond, and you’re left with a refreshingly timeless combo that can only result in true pop music domination. Comprised of Lauren Bennett, Paula Van Oppen, Natasha Slayton, Simone Battle and Emmalyn Estrada, G.R.L. is the longtime brainchild of music industry executive Robin Antin. As individuals, these five bright twentysomethings are multi-talented musicians, but together, they form a pop music powerhouse with the uncanny ability to bring positive vibes to every project that presents itself. With their feel-good debut single, “Vacation,” set for release in the summer blockbuster, The Smurfs 2, the GRLs are hard at work on a full-length album. Featuring famed songwriters and producers like Dr. Luke, Max Martin and Bonnie McKee, the pop record promises to incorporate relatable lyrics with a vast array of musical interests, including urban-infused rock and R&B. “We’re working with the best of the best,” Simone says. “With this album, we hope to inspire unity, strength, independence and self-esteem in GRLs all over the world.” Emmalyn adds, “Just like the saying goes, ‘There is no ‘I’ in ‘team,’ and there is no ‘I’ in G.R.L.’” Lauren Bennett (The Funny GRL) Don’t let Lauren Bennett’s strikingly supermodel good looks deceive you.
