"Sing to them my love. Whenever I feel like my spirit is dying I listen to your music, it helps feel alive again."
Her talents are unquestionable and were confirmed when she also bagged 3 SAMA nods in the categories: Female Artist Of The Year, Newcomer Of The Year and Best Afro Pop Album. Although she didn't win the Newcomer Of The Year, the Afro-soul songstress did walk away with South African Music Award (SAMA) of female Artist Of The Year for her album Imali, and her fans were delighted.
We won't be surprised if her upcoming online concert is sold out again on Friday, she is a force to be reckoned with and every artist yearns to work with her on their house music songs. Make sure to grab your tickets for her show, she never disappoints.
