I only reacted to it now, but I find it very amusing
that for a choir sometimes singing in kixhosa
it says "Support us by clicking" 😃

[@ЛючияСоларе]

Bravo!

[@messyatbestx]

Amazing! I’ve been a fan of yours for a while, since I saw you sing ‘Ukuthula’ in a cafe/restaurant on TH-cam✨
The vocals are so beautiful, both men and women💗I listen to you when I need peace of mind. All the love to you from the UK✨

IsiZulu is famously onomatopoeic. Just look at the title and think of “laduma” being spoken in thunderous voice.
