Boohle And Deep London Celebrate ‘Hamba Wena’ Major Milestone. Before her amapiano breakthrough in 2018 that has seen her release songs like Mama, Hamba Nobani, Inyembezi and Memeze , Boohle tried many genres that didn’t work for her.“People started to know the name before they knew the face.”.Her career launched in 2016 with house music and a couple of months later she found herself singing gospel as a member of Tshwane Gospel Choir. That lasted less than six months, after she fell pregnant with her son in 2017. She then tried gqom and Afro-pop.
Suffice it to say that Boohle’s transcendent first encounter with Nyovest is one that many rising musicians only dream of. The 23-year-old singer, born Buhle Manyathi in Vosloorus on the East Rand, is still befogged even months after the finished product has made her the name on everyone’s lips. She can only giggle as she retraces her steps to the day that changed her life forever.
Boohle worked alongside deep London to drop a massive hit titled ‘Hamba Wena’. The song has today amassed over 3 million views on YouTube since its official release. Check it out:
Amapiano songbird Boohle one day found herself inside Cassper Nyovest’s mansion, unbeknown to her, and moments later they were cooking the magic of Siyathandana.

The youngest of four children, Boohle has been singing ever since she can remember. But music was never encouraged at home because her parents are church leaders and were very strict.“Music is a calling for me. I could sing and people used to encourage that we form a musical trio with my sisters. But music was associated with a lot of bad things like drugs,” Boohle says.
