ILLUSIONZ VIBE IN BLANTYRE

The three-day entertainment spectacle commenced on Friday, with revelers partying from dusk till dawn to the beats spun by a lineup of renowned Malawian DJs including DJ Flame , Malume, DJ Vinne Q, VJ Ice, DJ Reubie , and Nathan Tunes. However, Friday's offerings were merely a taste of what was to come, as Saturday night took the festivities to new heights.

By 8pm, the venue appeared lackluster, with only a handful of brave souls enduring the adverse conditions scattered throughout the expansive space. Gradually, more people trickled in, and by 10pm, the venue was teeming with attendees. Mimi, the event's host, set the stage alight with her captivating performance, leaving the audience in awe.

TAYLOR MADE FREESTYLE DROPPED

Last week, Drake posted a song called " Taylor Made Freestyle " on social media. However, according to Billboard, it seems like he has now taken down the track.  The song featured AI renderings of 2Pac and Snoop Dogg's voices. The reason behind this removal is a legal letter from 2Pac's estate. The letter stated that the song was using Tupac Shakur's personality rights without permission, which the estate found to be a misuse and misappropriation.  They expressed their deep disappointment and dismay over this unauthorized usage, calling it a clear disrespect towards one of the greatest hip-hop artists of all time. Drake's representative chose not to comment on the matter, and Drake himself did not provide any explanation for removing the song.
