South African music lovers were recently hit with a wave of emotion after a touching video of Kelvin Momo previewing an unreleased track featuring the late Yallunder went viral. The clip, shared by an entertainment page on social media, shows the Amapiano producer listening intently to the heartfelt collaboration in studio, surrounded by other artists — but clearly lost in the moment and the emotion of the music.
The unreleased song features the hauntingly beautiful vocals of Yolanda “Yallunder” Nyembezi, who sadly passed away in March 2025 at the age of 30. Her untimely death left a void in the local music scene, as fans and fellow musicians mourned the loss of one of the most gifted vocalists of her generation. Known for her soulful, emotive voice and deep lyrical content, Yallunder had carved a unique space for herself in both the Afro-soul and Amapiano worlds.
In the viral video, Kelvin Momo—who is known for his deeply emotional and soulful take on Amapiano—can be seen vibing quietly to the unreleased track. Though the studio was filled with people, his focus was clearly on the music and the presence of Yallunder’s unforgettable voice. The atmosphere was solemn yet powerful, a moment of musical reflection that resonated deeply with fans.
“Intro for the upcoming album for sure🥺🔥” one fan commented. “He can’t get over the death 😢”
Social media has since been flooded with emotional tributes, with many calling for the official release of the track to honour Yallunder’s legacy. Fans believe that the collaboration not only showcases her talent, but also captures the depth of her artistry in a way that words alone cannot express.
Kelvin Momo has yet to announce if or when the song will be released, but the preview alone has reignited appreciation for Yallunder’s unique voice and undeniable impact on the South African music industry.
As South Africa continues to grieve the loss of a rising star, this unreleased song stands as a powerful reminder of the brilliance that was Yallunder — gone too soon, but never forgotten.
