Channel O celebrated its 25th anniversary on Tuesday with a spectacular bash at Johannesburg’s Altitude Beach venue.
With its quirky material, the famous music channel has been at the forefront of chronicling African youth culture throughout the years.
The channel just stated that it will be honouring this milestone with “a December to remember”.
DJ Ph, Scoop Makhathini, Smash Afrika, Psyfo, Lerato Mokoka, Emtee, Candice Modiselle, Nomuzi Mabena, and Rosemary Zimu were among those who attended the celebration.
“It’s incredible that Channel O has been around for this long while keeping things fresh,” said Shirley Adonisi, director of local entertainment channels at M-Net.
“The channel has played a pivotal role in shaping and influencing music and pop culture over the years.
“It has supported the craft of musicians – whether up-and-comers or the big names – and has bolstered movements and subcultures by giving them the spotlight they deserve. We would like to thank the audience for their continued support for, and investment in, Channel O. Here’s to another 25 years.”
Channel O’s December programming in commemoration of the milestone includes “Own the O,” in which viewers compose, write, and photograph the show’s dedication links on their phones from wherever they are on the continent.
Viewers may also see the third season of fan favourite “My Top 5”.
Nomfundo Moh, Priddy Ugly, Bonko Khoza, and Una Rams appear on the show and perform some of their favourite songs.
