News It or Lose It: Vin Diesel’s TV Takeover and a Historic Pop Collab

It’s a "Fast" world and we’re just living in it! On this episode of News It or Lose It, Zweli reacts to Vin Diesel’s massive announcement from the NBCUniversal upfronts, where he revealed that Peacock is launching four new series within the Fast and Furious universe. While the studio might only be confirming one, Vin says the "Family" is expanding—no matter what! We also head to Rosebank to hear from the die-hard fans who attended the premiere of Billie Eilish’s immersive concert film, Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour (Live in 3D). Directed by James Cameron, this cinematic experience is leaving Joburg fans buzzing about the future of live music on the big screen. Finally, we celebrate a historic music milestone as Tame Impala and Jennie (Blackpink) make history. Their remix of "Dracula" has officially hit the Top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100, marking the first Top 10 for Tame Impala and the first solo Top 10 for Jennie!
