S2 33 Kendrick Lamar, Diddy, Ernest Cole, StudioCanal, Pick n Pay and Superman
African Couch PotatoPlay episode
Show notes
Every now and again we need to look beyond the borders of our country or even the continent, and this is one of those episodes where our love for excellence takes us abroad. We kick off (see what we did there) with Kendrick Lamar's Superbowl Halftime show which drew 133.7 million viewers, more than MJ (133.1m) and certainly more than watched the actual game.
Moving downfield, Gino is underwhelmed by the Showmax release of the Sean Combs documentary Diddy: The Making of a Bad Boy.
From bad to good, apartheid era photographer Ernest Cole is in the frame with a documentary film that premiered in Cannes and will feature at the upcoming Joburg Film Festival.
Canal Plus's StudioCanal is planning a feature film in SA, Pick n Pay's Price Palooza feat. Rick Ross hits your screens, and even more bizarre than all the rest is the case of Superman suing Superman. Good old truth, justice, and the American way.
