Ethnic Beauty of the Week

This week I'm starting a new feature on the blog, the ethnic beauty of the week. We kick it off with Nhlanhla Nciza (nee Mafu) of Mafikizolo. This woman is hot and can sing. Her CD has been on my mp3 player for a while and it is not leaving anytime soon. Maehlabela esithi zizophela inhlupheko ngizizwa ngivhumela naye. Nxa usuku belunzima, ngingaifaka leyongoma ngizwangcono maisiphelile.

The song Ulibambe makes me think of weddings. I can see folks doing amaSteps betshaya iBus Stop leCha Cha Cha. A wedding is not complete without the bridal party doing the steps and the aunts and uncles messing it all up by dancing as well though we do love the tipping that they do.

My top 3 songs on that CD are:

• Ulibambe
• Phela Inhlopheko
• Indoda Ayikhali

In less than a decade, Nhlanhla Nciza who is one of South Africa’s renowned female artists and award member of the group Mafikizolo has positioned herself in the world of music and entertainment as a true fashion icon that is classy, elegant, sassy, and stylish. Award winning musician, media personality, entrepreneur, and mother, Nhlanhla represents everything a woman can be; utilizes the high fashion elegance to empower and inspire other women.

The first video is Mahlalela. A woman that can make a doek look good has my vote any day.

In Mafikizolo she did her thing and the song Makhwapheni is the track that I'll never get tired of watching. Keep an eye out for her in the white tank in the second video.
