Four South African Stars To Watch Out For in 2019.

1. Simphiwe Nhlangulela - Simmy

This talented star entered the music industry in 2018 releasing an album, Tugela Fairy, that served Mzansi flames with hits such as Ubala (featuring Sun-El Musician), Nawe and Ngiyesaba. Sun-El Musician also features her in other hits "Sonini" and "Ntaba Ezikude". There is no doubt that this star just braced the music industry but she is definitely one to look out for in 2019 because she just has to have more in store for South Africa.

2. Yanga Sobetwa

The 17- year-old Idols SA winner showed us that indeed, age is just a number! Most South Africans fell in-love with her from her very first audition on Idols, but did she know that she would take the Idols SA Season 14 Winner title home? Whether or not she saw it coming, she absolutely deserves it and her hit "Scars (All Over Me)" justifies that. Here is another rising star to look out for in 2019!

3. Mlindo The Vocalist

Here comes another one! Mlindo The Vocalist released his first album "Emakhaya" in 2018 and it is safe to say that that album was nothing but flames, he featured most of South Africa's loved artists, few of them being Sjava, DJ Maphorisa, Kwesta and Thabsie. "Macala" , "AmaBlesser" and "Egoli" were some of the songs that were on the album that South Africans fell in love. Mlindo The Vocalist has definitely taken the music industry by storm. We cannot wait to see what he will have in store for us in 2019.

4. Larona Moagi

She is most known to South Africans as Itumeleng Mokoena on The River that airs on DSTV 1 Magic, she takes on the role as a lead role. It is amazing how she was not planning on entering the entertainment industry at the particular moment when she went for auditions, although she had always wanted to enter the entertainment industry. This beautiful and talented actress was doing her third year in BA(Law) at the University of the Witwatersrand when this acting opportunity presented itself to her and we are happy she did not shy away from it. Let us wait and keep it locked to The River to see what she has in store for us in 2019!

Mzansi is blessed with talent, unfortunately we cannot feature all these talented stars but there you have it South Africa, four rising stars to be on the look out for in 2019.
