Zanda Zakuza rose to prominence as the voice behind several South African club hits, such as Master KG’s “Skeleton Move” and Prince Kaybee’s “Club Controller”.
However, with fame came challenges, as Zakuza struggled with the pressures of celebrity life and international touring.
Feeling overwhelmed and isolated, Zakuza found herself longing for the familiarity of home and the support of her loved ones. Despite reaching out, she often felt disconnected as those back home didn’t fully understand her experiences abroad.
Additionally, Zakuza faced discrimination and online criticism, particularly regarding her appearance, which took a toll on her mental well-being.
After grappling with these challenges, Zakuza decided to take a break from music and explore other avenues like radio and acting. Now, she returns with a renewed sense of confidence and a fresh EP.
Reflecting on her journey, Zakuza emphasizes the importance of setting boundaries and not seeking validation from others. She advises handling critics by simply ignoring them.
With exclusive acoustic performances teased for her upcoming EP, fans can anticipate an exciting comeback from Zanda Zakuza.
