We had a sit down with Paolo Genovesi, global citizen, self-declared pro-Apartheid supporter, turned pan-Africanist. On the effect of music, musicians, and one musician in particular - Johnny Clegg - who affected his life and altered his world view. Sit back for a lengthy read of an interesting conversation that covers a lot of topics. Paolo's story shows how political and/or social activism, be it via music art or other means, can alter people's mindset, change their lives and that of others, for the betterment of all.

Amy Winehouse | Love is a losing game

Reflections on a Jazz revelation.
UbuntuFM | Amy Winehouse
I never latched on to Amy Winehouse when she was still alive. I thought she was hyped too much at the time. Her music was too subtle to reach me thru the noise of the crowd. Only after her death, once the hubbub had died down, I started to listen to her voice, her way of singing, her lyrics & music. 

Suthukazi Arosi | Black and White

Youtube video by Suthukazi Arosi
SUTHUKAZI AROSI | BLACK AND WHITE
BLACK AND WHITE is a song about us - human beings with all the hatred that has turned against all humanity for centuries. Civilised as we are but still dwelling on racism. God created us all with love and so beautifully without seeing any colour but embracing colour as his creation. The song is calling on all human beings to stop this mentality that is tearing us up - and our beautiful planet - from generation to generation.

'Gestalt' switch

when a switch in perspective turns paradigmatic
UbuntuFM | Rubin vase| Gestalt switch
'Gestalt switch' is a process whereby someone's perspective changes from one thing to another... You may experience this when looking at this picture. At first you see one image and then your eyes - in fact, your brain, recognizes the second one and stores it into your memory; forever. The next time you look at this picture you will see both images; this not only applies to these pictures but to our life's experience in general. We then have renewed our mind...
