South African artist Shanela returns with a new single titled “Ngingadlulela phambili”, her standout release of the year. The track forms part of her project, “Obaby Mama”, where it sits alongside other songs on the body of work.
The song carries her trademark melodic pull and storytelling, and it slots neatly into the wider “Obaby Mama” project rather than standing apart from it. Fans who have followed Shanela’s run will recognise the sound here, because “Ngingadlulela phambili” leans on the same strengths that built her following.
She has built a reputation for music that connects, and this release adds to that record. The single also gives listeners who came in through the project an easy entry point into her catalogue, while longtime supporters get another reason to stay locked in.
