Ayepyep Lifestyle Cape Town is set to host Cape 2 Samba in honour of the charismatic DJ as his loved ones remember him in the best way they know how - through unforgettable celebrations.
Sumbody's brother and family spokesperson, Koketso Sefoka, said the festival represents his late brother's larger-than-life personality:
"This festival reflects his boisterous approach to his short but well-lived life and is also a commemoration of his growing legacy."
Koketso said they are also planning to kick off the festive season on a high note:
"The Cape 2 Samba Festival is a very special kick-off of the country’s party season, we invite everyone to celebrate this occasion with us."
Speaking to Ayepyep Lifestyle's media specialist, Thabo Mboweni told Briefly News that the festival would be a memorable weekend-long extravaganza:
"It's a three-day festival and will kick-start on Friday, 24 November and end on Sunday, 26 November. It will be an unforgettable experience."
The Cape 2 Samba Festival will feature the likes of Venom, Junior De Rocka, Major Steez, Benny Maverick, and many more who will ignite the vibrant energy of the Brazilian-themed festival.
Ayepyep Lifestyle Cape Town reopens
Back in August 2023, Ayepyep Lifestyle Cape Town unexpectedly closed its doors and paused operation. This was due to the ongoing legal dispute between DJ Sumbody's family and his ex-business partner, Kagiso Setsetse.
Following the gruelling battle, the Sefoka family managed to secure Setsetse's 50% stake in Ayepyep Lifestyle Cape Town. The club announced its official reopening on Instagram:
The Sefoka family has now secured a 50% ownership stake in Ayepyep Lifestyle Cape Town, a testament to their unwavering commitment to preserving DJ Sumbody's legacy."
Supporters were concerned for their safety:
vuyani_billz demanded clarity:
"Who owns the other 50%? And why is there no clarity on allegations against Ralph Stanfield?"
linda_msibi enquired:
"What happened to the gangster guy, joh fear of a stray bullet at groove!"
ilabmalekmay asked:
"Is it safe tho?"
mosh_matsimela wanted to know:
"So who owns the other 50%?"
mazet28 said:
"I don't hear anything about your patrons' safety. The assurance is needed in this instance."
