She stated, "The relationship between myself and Open Mic Productions was like a match made in heaven as it elevated both of us to become top household names in the South African music industry. Our relationship produced four studio albums, and all the albums did very well."
Makhadzi's new album, "Mbofholowo," was released on September 1st, setting the stage for an exciting summer. She shared the news on her Instagram, expressing her dedication and promising her fans that the album would leave them in awe.
In her post, she wrote, "This is music with Freedom, mbofholowo... I'm doing this independently. There are amazing featured/supporting artists in this album; it will blow you away. I strive in unity and being a proud African. I put my heart and soul into this AGAIN. Album Is OUT MIDNIGHT on all Platforms. You can Pre-Add on the link on my Bio. ❤️🙏🏾"
