The OMG Episode with Sivan Pillay
Congratulations to all our listeners on making it off the sanctions list! This podcast will continue to lobby for you, but this week, as Phil revenges Danny and travels himself, Dan finds another special guest - outgoing CEO of Trace Studios and Trace Southern Africa, now CEO of TV production company Zero Gravity and all-round super-connected guy in African media, Sivan Pillay.
Dan met him last week when he should have been recording the podcast and decided to bring him on to get his takes on several hot topics in the world of the music industry, for example what’s the deal with Universal Music Group acquiring a majority stake in Nigerian record label Mavin Group? And how far UMG music all being taken off of TikTok and the war of words that followed? And wait, was UMG CEO named in the Diddy case as well? Dan & Sivan wrap it up with a debate on the idea of cancel culture and what’s coming up on South African TV. Enjoy this special episode!
