Happy 70th birthday Chuck!

I don’t know if anybody has noticed recently but when you flick to Jacaranda FM the artist name and song title now scrolls across the display in your car radio?

In 2008 Vernon Koekemoer leapt to prominence as “South Africa’s own Chuck Norris” getting coverage in almost every form of media going.
This year it would appear that a new social craze is developing in the form of “romantic Afrikaans rap star” Jack Parow.
