It is no doubt that Idols SA hasn't been the same this year, due to the lockdown regulations a lot has had to be done differently. The show this year has had to adhere to the restriction of large gatherings but due to some easing of restrictions, only a certain number of people will be permitted. Idols SA has taken the decision to not allow a large number of audience members for their safety.
The selection of the top 16 by judges Unathi Nkayi, Somizi Mhlongo-Motaung and Randall Abrahams already kicked the show off last week, they went through the difficult task of selecting the top 16 contestants. Unfortunately, some favourites didn't make it.
Really grateful for the experience @IdolsSA. Thank yβall so much for the love, really overwhelmingπ₯Ί
Iβm really excited to be sharing this news with you π€ Iβm gonna be releasing a single by the name Soulmate. Please help me spread this news ππΎ #MatevhuSoulmatepic.twitter.com/43x7zrjD0s
One such unfortunate soul was Matevhu, who is extremely talented and was a favourite among the audience. She had this to say...

Just as when Matevhu thought it was the end, another door in the form of DJ Zinhle opened for her yesterday. DJ Zinhle was the second guest judge of Idols Season 16 and Tweeps loved the DJ's cool demeanour and her handling of contestants on the show, which always ends in tears for those aren't good enough to make it into the industry.
Can't wait to hear it, also can't wait to work on our project β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ https://t.co/KoFV2LF8i8

DJ Zinhle must have been taken away by Matevhu because on her Tweet she seemed impressed and eager to work with her.
"Can't wait to hear it, also can't wait to work on our project"
DJ Zinhle made a promise to Matevhu that she would like to work with her when she was a judge on Idols Season 16 and like the Queen that she is, she lived up to her promise. Matevhu will get to work with the Best Female DJ in Africa and start her career off on an amazing start.
"Matevhu was obviously delighted and expressed her gratitude. OMG!! thank you so much, I canβt wait"

Her businesses are booming and she is always securing the bag and her relationship with Murdah Bongz is going strong, our Queen is clearly blessed and she decided to share her blessings with others. May Matevhu not be the last.
Which other idols would you have wished to be in the last 16?
