Mlindo The Vocalist And Maphorisa Officially Reunite. Lindokuhle Mgedeza, known professionally as Mlindo the Vocalist, is a South African singer and songwriter. He initially gained notable recognition following his debut single, “Amablesser”, taken from his debut album, Emakhaya.
Afropop star Mlindo The Vocalist and amapiano pioneer DJ Maphorisa are officially working together again after a rocky year filled with bitter public feuds between the two camps.Maphorisa’s manager and business partner Thuli Keupilwe took to Instagram to share the news. “Welcome back home Mlindo The Vocalist,” she posted on her IG Stories along with a poster depicting his new booking email for Blaq Boy Music, which is Maphorisa’s record label. Mlindo also shared this poster on his Instagram feed. He is also launching his album titled ‘Lindokuhle’, and Maphorisa will be also be at the venue.
It was only a few months ago that Maphorisa went on a lengthy rant on Facebook accusing Mlindo and his manager Nyiko Bilankulu of backstabbing him. “It’s so crazy how people will backstab you. Mlindo the Vocalist came to Jozi. He didn’t know anyone and I had to get him a road manager,” he wrote.
“At that time Nyiko was super broke but a cool, hard-working guy so I gave him a chance, not knowing the devil. To cut the story short, after two years, I hear Nyiko is Mlindo’s manager.“They cut off my percentage, he promoted himself. I said I will let them be even though I could take him back. I left them to do their thing,” he added.
Mlindo’s manager did not let the allegations lie low, as he went on a podcast to tell his side of the story and of Mlindo. He claimed that their relationship went south in 2020 when Maphorisa wanted Mlindo to switch to amapiano.Despite this back and forth, Mlindo and Maphorisa reconciled in May as Mlindo announced that Maphorisa was featured on his new album, “Lindokuhle” before taking to his Instagram Live to share that he’d called Maphorisa to apologise and that he’d forgiven him.
