October 1997. A new music channel went on air on DStv. Channel O was made for young viewers and played local and international music videos. 📺
Over the years it has covered kwaito, hip hop and amapiano, giving each sound a screen. It also runs the Channel O Music Video Awards, which honour music videos from across Africa.
It turned 25 in 2022 and is still on DStv channel 320. 🎶
