We say goodbye to Ke Dezember boss even though it was totally different from how we usually dezember. Between the corona, curfews and other restrictions we really had to make sure that the Dezember issue of Youff packs a punch so that you are kept informed and entertained past the silly season. We have a lot to be grateful for and a lot of lessons to take into 2021. The Youff fam would like to send hugs and condolences to everyone suffering through loss of a loved one, loss of employment and depression.

We are fighting through a pandemic but most importantly, we are fighting. In the famous words of Bobo “Yilwa Ntombo”. May you carry the fighting spirit with you to 2021. We chose Kamo Mphela to be on the December Cover because she represents a young talent that has fought to secure her place in the entertainment world and in society. She has become the voice of Amapiano and keeps doing her thang! We love to see it.

Summer is around the corner and with this issue we want to reflect on what the year has brought forth. Firstly, we would like to wish all students going through exams the best of luck and let them know that the best is yet to come. To see where we are going we need to know where we’re coming from and if 2020 is anything to go by then we’re in for one amazing festive season. As the laws of the universe state...for every action, there’s an equal and opposite reaction.

Our November cover star is the dzaddiest of them all. We called this issue the SAMA issue not only because is it the beginning of Summer but we also have the SAMA award winning Yanga Chief on our cover. From successful job hunting to fitness, to make up and beauty as well as some awesome mixes, Youff magazine’s got you. UJohn esezoli vula i-gate.
