Her soothing soulful vocal, depth of lyrics, and African pride shine through in everything she touches.

The El-World and Redbox family have shown an undoubted ear for bringing the likes of Simmy, Azana, Mthuzi, and many other exceptional talents to life through their melodic and unique production aesthetic which speaks directly to the soul (Earning this production collective an impressive 12 SAMA nominations this year in multiple categories).

Nobuhle emerged on the scene as a part of Sun-El Musician’s album To The World and Beyond with the infectious track “Never Never” which has amassed over 1million streams across DSP’s and has charted on SA Radio.

Nobuhle has been hard at work on her debut album “Imvula” with an impressive string of collaborators featuring Sun-EL Musician, Black Motion, Shimza, Umzulu Phaqa, Mpho.wav, Vernotile, and more.

“Imvula” is a spiritual journey through African electronic sound and Afro-House and Nobuhle’s body of work placed emphasis on Healing, Hope, Spirituality, and Love.

In the title track, Nobuhle metaphorically refers to “Imvula” as hope and a prayer to our forefathers for a better tomorrow. In this futuristic slow-electronic jazz song, Nobuhle narrates her life story of living under generational inequalities.

Nobuhle has been releasing a string of singles in anticipation of her album already and these singles have already generated great momentum for what fans can expect from his impressive offering.

“Eloyi” a previously released single released enroute to the album was inspired by a bible scripture that features the formidable Black Motion duo and which was featured on the cover of Apple Music’s Mzansi House and was featured on Loot love’s Big 5 on Apple Music as well recently released Track “Sawubona” with Sun-EL Musician.

Her final pre-add released on the 10th of September “Nkiya Nkiya”- “when you are no longer happy, leave!” Nobuhle shines in this instrumental house jam asserting that women should reclaim their power and move on from the hurt.

The much anticipated 15 track album is now out released in conjunction with artists services company, Platoon.
