Letterhead
Jusdesign Creatives is a graphic design company. I came up wzith the name. The reason why I write just design without “T” is because nobody really Pronounce the letter “T” when they’re saying the word. I thought it would grab attention because the name is written in a different way than the one they always know of.

From the very beginning, Thandiswa
Mazwai has always managed to be at
the forefront of change. Born in the rural
homeland of Transkei, she grew up in
Soweto during the '80s, as part of the
"Soweto generation," who witnessed
the violent dismantling of apartheid and
the growth of a free South Africa. The
daughter of journalists, she was con-
stantly surrounded by banned books,
writing, and political discourse.
This would eventually prove to be an
important element in the singer's song-
writing and political awareness.

Hugh Ramopolo Masekela was born on April 4, 1939, in Witbank, South Africa. He began singing and playing piano as a child. But at age 14, after seeing the film, where Kirk Douglas portrays American Jazz trumpeter, Bix Beiderbecke, he took up trumpet, given to the young Hugh by Archbishop Trevor Huddleston, the anti-apartheid chaplain at St. Peters Secondary School.

South African Jazz magazine. I just thought of a name when I felt like doing a magazine about south african jazz artists while i was playing some of my
favourate songs. I wanted to do something clean,working with space combined with nice photography.

In 2000, Brian was part of the original cast for Disney’s The Lion King in LA. The success of his performance led to Disney promoting him to the role of Simba in London’s West End run of the show. Since he left in 2008, Brian has been working on his debut album Brian says “It’s a crazy and amazing time for me right now. I finally get to sing and write the kind of songs I have always wanted. I am influ-enced by a mixture of gospel classics like Kim Burrell. and old soul greats like Stevie Wonder.”
Started his career in his native homeland South Africa, where he sang for the likes of Jonathan Butler and Nelson Mandela. Brian is now based in London where he has lived for the past 8 years.

Hugh Ramopolo Masekela was born on April 4, 1939, in Witbank, South Africa. He began singing and playing piano as a child. But at age 14, after seeing the film, where Kirk Douglas portrays American Jazz trumpeter, Bix Beiderbecke, he took up trumpet, given to the young Hugh by Archbishop Trevor Huddleston, the anti-apartheid chaplain at St. Peters Secondary School.
After Huddleston asked the leader of the then Johannesburg “Native“ Municipal Brass Band, Uncle Sauda, to teach Hugh the rudiments of trumpet playing, the young boy quickly proceeded to master the instrument. Soon, some of Hugh’s music-loving schoolmates also became interested in playing instruments, leading to the formation of the Huddleston Jazz Band, South Africa’s very first youth orchestra.
