With over 15 years in broadcasting and a fan base across the country, DJ Ankletap is known in the South African radio scene. His new show aims to deliver a mix of music and content — perfect for listeners ready to get into the weekend party spirit, says the radio station.
"I'm extremely excited to be joining Jacaranda FM — it's a station that truly resonates with the heartbeat of the city and its people," says DJ Ankletap. "I can't wait to bring my passion for music, storytelling and good vibes to the airwaves and connect with such an incredible audience. Here's to new beginnings and unforgettable moments on Jacaranda FM."
Jacaranda FM says that, known as Malume Tap, DJ Ankletap's radio journey started at just 12 years old, working as a cricket stadium announcer in Potchefstroom. By the age of 21, he convinced his parents to buy him DJ equipment — a bold move that launched his career in entertainment. After a stint at UJFM while studying psychology, he went on to become a household name on YFM and most recently hosted the breakfast show on YOU FM.
Ravi Naidoo, Programming and Content Manager at Jacaranda FM, says, "We are incredibly excited to welcome DJ Ankletap to the Jacaranda FM family. He brings with him not only a wealth of experience but a unique connection to South African audiences. His energy, storytelling and ability to bring people together through radio is exactly what we need to elevate our weekend lineup."
Jacaranda FM concludes by encouraging listeners to listen to Party Nights With Ankletap every Friday between 19:00 and 22:00 on Jacaranda FM.
