Go Live Radio Bio
Go Live Radio is a youth driven digital platform rooted in culture, community and creative expression. It exists to amplify the voices of a new generation while preserving the stories, sounds and spirit passed down through those who came before.
Go Live Radio is an initiative by Youth Impact SA in partnership with the City of Cape Town and Ward 47 Councillor Alderman Antonio van der Rheede.
Through music, conversation, and storytelling, Go Live Radio captures the heartbeat of everyday life, where language, rhythm and identity are shaped in real time. It’s a space where young people don’t just follow culture; they carry it, reinterpret it and keep it alive for the next generation.
From emerging talent to community voices, the station bridges the gap between past and present, honouring heritage while pushing the culture forward. It’s about pride, belonging, and creating something lasting through sound.
More than just radio, Go Live Radio is a home for expression, connection and legacy in motion. Where we live the moment and share the vibe.
