Singer, Songwriter, Record Producer and Professional Jazz Pianist Nhlonipho, hailing from eSwatini, has teamed up with veteran Soweto-born musician, singer-songwriter and producer Mjakes The Producer to deliver the first single off Mjake’s forthcoming album ‘Imithandazo’. The single, titled ‘Phendula Imithandazo’, is produced by Nhlonipho, and tells the story of God’s children who have been through a lot in life, and are asking God to answer their prayers, to give them the strength and power that they seek from Him.
Nhlonipho's musical path has brought him into collaboration with both national and international artists, including renowned names such as Black Coffee, Ami Faku, Mörda, and Mthandazo Gatya, just to name a few. Meanwhile, Mjakes, a seasoned figure in the music industry, has gained recognition for his outstanding contributions to the field, having worked alongside legendary figures such as the late Robbie Malinga, Yvonne Chaka Chaka, and the late Brown Dash to name a few. Witnessing these two exceptionally gifted and innovative musicians unite to create a musical experience unlike any other is truly something extraordinary.
“It feels great to be given an opportunity to work with one of the people I look up to in the music industry. Mjakes is someone who has been in the game for a very long time, and I have learned a lot from him. To be able to work with him is such an honour, for him to trust me to be on this project means that he sees potential in me, and that means a lot. I am very excited about this single.” says Nhlonipho
