South African pop queen Tyla is at it, but this time it’s a top record: only one person has broken it—the first African solo artist with a song to surpass 1 billion streams on Spotify.
As of February 2025, Tyla became the first solo artist with a song (“Water”) to surpass one billion streams on Spotify. The song, which was released on July 28, 2023, took the entire world to the borders of South Africa.
The song peaked at #7 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #1 on the Hot R&B Songs charts. It also spent 15 weeks on the Billboard 200, peaking at #24.
‘Water’ won many international awards, including MTV VMAs, MTV EMA, BET, and Grammys.
Another Billion club member achieved this but with the help of Selena Gomez on “Calm Down Remix.”
It’s been 20 years since Aang was discovered, the destined Avatar who was tasked to unite the four nations. Seven years later, it was Korra’s story, and now, 13 years later, that universe, which raised a generation, is getting another addition.
Nickelodeon has called on the original creators, Michael DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko, to release another chapter to the Avatar Universe.
The new show will be ‘Avatar: Seven Havens,‘ a 26-episode, 2D animation currently in the works. Each season (aka books in Avatar) will be 13 episodes each produced by Avatar Studios. Other information like casting and premiere date is yet to be revealed.
“When we created the original series, we never imagined we’d still be expanding the world decades later,” DiMartino and Konietzko said in a joint statement. “This new incarnation of the Avatarverse is full of fantasy, mystery, and a whole new cast of amazing characters. Get ready to take another epic and emotional adventure!”
The Netflix live-action show ‘Avatar: The Last Airbender’ is expected to run for two more seasons. The show’s original creators, DiMartino and Konietzko, were originally expected to develop the show for Netflix, but that fell through due to creative differences.
In 2021, they returned to Nickelodeon to run Avatar Studios as co-chief creative officers and help build Avatarverse across film and TV.
A feature film for TheLast Airbender focusing on the original series’ main character, Aang, is set for release in January 2026, starring Dave Bautista, Dionne Quan, Jessica Matten, Román Zaragoza, and Eric Nam.
14 years ago, one of the worst occurrences in gaming history took place—we lost the PlayStation Network and sadly for 23 days. 14 years later, it will seem history is about to repeat itself.
The last time PSN was down, Sony said they were hacked, but this time around there’s been no indication on what could be the issue.
This can’t be labelled a “9/11” event for gamers; popular networks go down from time to time. This is the same for Sony’s PlayStation Network. It’s been over 15 hours since it was first reported that PSN was down, and players are getting worried.
Via X
The issues for the last few hours include the inability to access online functionality, sign in, check stores, or even boot up games that require an internet connection.
PlayStation via the @AskPlayStation Twitter/X account official response was: “We are aware some users might be currently experiencing issues with PSN. For more details: https://status.playstation.com.”

British-Nigerian designer Liz Sanya has completed her attempt to set a new record for the world’s largest sandal.
The pink clog sandal measures 3.156 meters (10 feet 4.2 inches) in width and 8.147 metres (26 feet 8.8 inches) in length.
Sanya began building the sandal on January 2,, 2025, after the GWR confirmed it, and completed it on January 4.
The sandal was constructed at Pixel Park in Lekki, Lagos, finishing her shoe on Jan. 4.
Celebrities including Mayorkun, Pheelz, P.Priime, and Taves, music entrepreneur Bizzle Osikoya, and filmmaker Korty were present to cheer her on and celebrate her ambition.
Reflecting on her drive for innovation and excellence, Liz stated:
I’ll never be able to put into words what any of this means to me, I started designing shoes when I was 12 and by 14 I was selling them to fund a ‘habit’ I couldn’t afford. None of this has been possible without the support and compassion of the people who see me and believe in my vision. Ibadan… where I was born. Lagos where I was inspired. It was only right to come back home and prove it. 1 world record to beat, within 72hrs…
