Nike My One Thing - Caster Semenya

Opportunity x possibility.

⠀

Caster Semenya started the Masai Athletics Club because most kids from her town don’t ever get a shot at the Olympics... and that needed to change.

⠀

Stride by stride, the future of sport is hot on her heels.

TUFF TIME$

A three part musical journey that follows South African duo, Stiff Pap.

"‘TUFF TIME$ NEVER LAST’ is about how hard life has been during the pandemic and how our government has been letting people down, specifically poor black communities. A lot of our new music has become increasingly political as of late. Everyday we live the reality of being young black and exploited by the legacy of apartheid and colonialism in South Africa so it’s nothing new but now more than ever we choose to fight back through our art. Through ‘TUFF TIME$’ we express the rage, pain and joys of moving to Johannesburg in pursuit of our dreams. We’ve always been inspired by the resilience and creativity of Johannesburg’s inner city youth. We’re just young artists trying to do what we can with what we have to create a better life for ourselves and our families. In our eyes, this city epitomizes that. It’s not pretty, it’s rough and it’s scary but through it all it’s beautiful. We’ve learnt a lot, we know who we are and we know what we want. We owe a lot to this city and TUFF TIME$ is our tribute.” - Stiff Pap
