Unathi Nkayi and DJ Fresh Return to Radio with New Station Launch

South African media personalities Unathi Nkayi and DJ Fresh have officially reunited for an exciting new radio venture – the launch of 938Whatsnext. The announcement marks their highly anticipated return to broadcasting after their brief collaboration on Mix FM earlier this year.
In a social media reveal on June 1, the duo shared an energetic teaser video promising innovative content. “If you loved the quality of radio we did before, you’re gonna love this next level even more,” DJ Fresh declared, hinting at their vision to “re-imagine radio beyond your wildest dreams.”
The project represents:
- A creative reboot for both stars after career transitions
- Unathi’s return to radio following her Kaya 959 departure
- Fresh’s expansion beyond his successful WAW (What A Week) podcast
Industry peers and fans flooded social media with support, praising their persistence in reinventing South African radio. The station’s name (938Whatsnext) suggests an emphasis on forward-thinking programming, though format details remain under wraps.
This collaboration leverages both hosts’ extensive experience – Unathi’s award-winning radio background and Fresh’s reputation as a trailblazing broadcaster. Their reunion signals a potential shakeup in the competitive radio landscape.
