Grammy Award-winning singer Lalah Hathaway released the official music video for her soulful ballad “Can’t Let Go” on her YouTube channel on October 14, 2026. The song explores the emotional complexities of love and the difficulty of letting go.

Simple yet beautiful, the video captures Hathaway performing the song inside a house, with numerous close-up shots creating an intimate atmosphere that complements the track’s reflective mood.

The video was produced in association with MECCA Filmworks, with T.L. Benton serving as producer, director and director of photography. Stephanie Thom served as creative director, while Trae Mitchell was associate producer and assistant director. Additional cinematography was provided by Mitchell and Mike Adeyeye.

R&B singer Mýa released the official music video for her song “Saturday Night” on October 9, 2026, via her YouTube channel, delivering a nostalgic visual inspired by the carefree energy of ’90s house parties.

The video follows Mýa as she searches her closet for the perfect outfit for the night. When her girlfriends arrive to help, the preparations lead to an unexpected twist: the gathering takes place at her own home, where a growing crowd turns the evening into a full-fledged house party. Throughout the video, Mýa performs the song against the backdrop of the lively celebration, capturing the fun, fashion and social atmosphere associated with the era.

Directed by City James, the production features Viva as producer, Basewood as the production company, and Derek Brown as creative director. Editing was handled by Derek Brown and Kevin Genkitsai, with Courtney Goffney and Mika Kay Watanabe appearing as supporting actors.

Three of R&B’s best-loved acts, Brian McKnight, All-4-One and SWV, are heading to South Africa for a short run of live shows later this month, and demand is already high.

The tour opens on the 28th of October 2026 at the Grand Arena, GrandWest, in Cape Town. That show is already sold out. The action then moves to Gauteng for two nights at the Sunbet Arena, Time Square, in Pretoria, on the 30th and 31st of October. Organisers report that the 30th show is 90% sold out and the 31st show is 60% sold out, so seats are going quickly.

The line-up pairs three acts with long careers. Brian McKnight is known for smooth, romantic ballads such as “Back at One”. All-4-One made its name with harmony-driven slow jams including “I Swear”. SWV, the female trio behind the hit “Weak”, brings the sound of 90s R&B. Together they offer a night of nostalgia for fans who grew up on these songs and for newer listeners discovering the catalogue.

Tickets are available through Webtickets, including at Pick n Pay stores.
