SIPHO ALPHI: VIDEO OF THE YEAR  

The comedian and influencer Sipho Alphi tells Sowetan that he didn’t think his Konka with Mam’Sbosh video would be a hit and he’s extremely grateful.  

“TikTok has been my little podium to express myself in how I feel about specific things, especially the relationship that I have with my mom… it’s so great to see people resonate and love such videos where I portray her. I didn’t think the Konka video was going to go viral, the plan at first was not to be on TikTok in the first place,” Mkhwanazi said.  

“I am extremely grateful for the number of doors TikTok has opened for me – all of those likes, comments, and shares have done so much for me. I always get emotional when I talk about what this platform has done for me, I mean, I hosted the red carpet at the South African Music Awards (Samas) this year.  

“The videos I love the most are those of my mother and the ones where I take popular songs and add a gospel feel to them. When I’m hosting really big events, I tend to perform the version of the gospel videos on stage.”

WHY KONKA IS A HIT

Konka has achieved an almost cult-like status with the amount of attention it has gained from the public and celebrities.  

Award-winning musicians such as Black Coffee, Davido, DJ Maphorisa, Kabza De Small, Uncle Waffles, and many more have played at the club.  

Marketing and communications consultant to Konka Soweto, Linda Moeketsi tells City Press:  

“Konka launched last year. The brand ethos for our group of outlets is primarily rooted in a premium lifestyle experience for its consumers, regardless of geographical location, or social and financial standing.”  

“Our consumers enjoy the entertaining offerings we have strategically curated over the past few years and have been consistent in supporting our establishments as a result.”
