SA Youth "pays it forward" to the street children
August 7, 2008 in Die Yard by Ferril (Farrel Hardenberg)
Sifiso Jezile spent 12 years of his childhood living the label “street” child. In 2002 he joined up with Wiseman Dinizulu (fellow street youth) and Linzi Thomas to create the Mylife Project.
It is now six years later and Sifiso is on his way to Germany to perform with Germany’s most famous rappers to create awareness and support for a solution for our youth and children living in hopelessness.
The concert is the brainchild of DJ Mixwell, who met Sifiso and the youth of the Mylife Foundation on a recent visit to South Africa. DJ Mixwell is an Ambassador of Mylife and will be playing at the afterparty with fellow DJ’s Miss Leema and Reef. The concert will take place at “Uebel & Gafahrlich” on the 23rd August 2008 and will be supported by live band RHAATID.
Live on stage:
- Samy Deluxe
- Eizi Eiz
- Denyo
- Max Herre
- Afrob
- D-Flame
- Illo
- Lebogang (South African)
- and Earthborne (our very own Sifiso Jezile)
All artists will forgo their fees and all money from the concert and an innovative T-Shirt Campaign will be donated to the Mylife Foundation in South Africa to ensure the children of Cape Town do not have to live on the streets.
