As he steps gracefully into his 40s, Mobi Dixon joins me for a deeply reflective conversation that honours the man he has become — an artist, father, and spiritual being who has weathered life’s storms with remarkable grace. In this milestone episode, we celebrate Mobi not just for his musical legacy, but for the quiet strength behind his personal evolution.
He opens up about the turning points that reshaped his worldview , from surviving a near-death experience to navigating loss, healing, and learning to live with intention. This is a soulful exchange about what it truly means to grow older with purpose, to forgive, to reset, and to rise. From this conversation, I want to know what life lessons now guide his every steps?

Black Fathers Changing the Narrative- Moshe Ndiki & DJ Sabby
In this reflective episode, we sit down with two young celebrity fathers who are boldly redefining the narrative of Black fatherhood. Positioned at the intersection of tradition and modernity, the conversation explores how these modern-day Black dads are breaking generational cycles, challenging cultural norms, and making intentional choices to raise their children in environments that are safe, loving, and emotionally aware.
Together, they unpack the process of unlearning inherited notions of masculinity and confront the generational silence around affection and vulnerability. What unfolds is a raw, honest, and deeply human conversation about the joys, fears, and evolving lessons of fatherhood in today’s world.

The Woman and Her Womb
The greatest gift of life is being desired. In fact life itself is our greatest desire. To give and live it outstandingly. It is a need that we can all attest to. Having children presents one of the many instances that nurture the will to be more than just ourselves. However for many, it isn't as easy as it may seem. We cannot deny that the journey to parenthood is one that is personal to each one of us and by having these conversations we can all learn to be more sensitive, understanding and knowledgeable.
In this episode of AFTER DARK with Kayise I speak to Khumo Ngwenya who is an angel mom who lost her baby at 16 weeks of pregnancy. She shares her journey of loss, recovery and healing. I am also joined by Pastor Jerry Zwane and Karabo Zwane, founders of Hannah You Are Not Alone as they too share their journey and triumph after being declared infertile.
This is a must-watch for anyone and everyone who has had or considering to have children or anyone whose ever asked somebody when they are planning on having children.

GBV & Getting into the mind of an ex-abuser
There has been an ongoing war against women and children for decades. We have cried, marched, screamed and done just about anything we can but it seems the gender based violence is not get any better. It is very clear that it is not up to the woman to change but imperative for the men to speak up, take responsibility and help each other change and stop gender based violence.
It is for this very reason that in this episode of AFTER DARK I speak to Tumelo Mabena, a rehabilitated woman abuser turned gender based violence activist. The thought to even have the conversation was burdening and fearful but so necessary. As you watch this I hope it affords you an opportunity to heal and a better understanding of what goes on in the mind of an abuser, the role of society and most importantly of men in leading that change. It needs to stop and it can because enough is enough!
This conversation will hurt and it will leave many feeling broken but it is out of your broken pieces that I hope you be moulded back to peace.
Fear will not and cannot hold us back from healing. We will endeavour to cast out the darkness, for it can only be light that will follow.
