WHAT IS SHO MADJOZI UP TO?
After a social media hiatus, Sho Madjozi took to Instagram in March 2022 to update fans on what had been happening in her life.
“I discovered two people on my team had been stealing and doing all sorts of dodgy things to block opportunities from me. Some of the weapons formed against me were prospering a little bit. It’s been painful but I’m tired of sitting around feeling miserable about it,” wrote Madjozi.
She and Tanzanian muso Nandy released the music video for their collaboration titled Kunjani on 9 March. Sho Madjozi has promised fans that new music from her is on the way!
