R. Kelly’s Trapped in the Closet
R. Kelly’s Trapped in the Closet has to be one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. It never ceases to amaze what can be accomplished when you let an arrogant, narcissistic egomaniac fulfill his “artistic vision.” Sometimes you get something like Trapped in the Closet.

Pursuit of Happyness
This wasn’t Will Smith’s best performance, certainly not compared to the dramatic fireworks of say, Fresh Prince of Belair. That’s unfair. The movie wasn’t terrible, in fact, it wasn’t even bad. The hype before the movie, the promotion, the talk shows, all led you to believe that this might …

Old Queens Head, Pub Quiz

Metro FM National Radio Station
This is the one thing that I think the South African Broadcasting Commission actually got right, apart from their TV3 channel of course.
Over my ten year period of listening to Metro FM, the content, broadcast style and layout of the whole operation is what turned me into the loyal, …
