DJ Zinhle is full of gratitude and excitement as she marks two major career milestones—being named one of Apple Music’s Big Five artists on Africa Now and releasing her brand-new album Zee Nation Volume.1.
Sharing her joy on Instagram, Zinhle said, “I’m honoured to be featured as one of the Big Five artists on Africa Now by @AppleMusic. This is for the culture. This is for the continent. Please keep streaming the album – your support means everything.” Her heartfelt message shows just how much the recognition means to her and how proud she is to represent African music on a global stage.
DJ Zinhle is also featured on the cover of Apple Music’s Isgubhu playlist, which is dedicated to South African dance and electronic music. “So excited to be on the cover of @applemusic Music’s Isgubhu playlist! The playlist features my song Hlala Nami with Liema Pantsi, MORDA & Mthunzi – plus some of my fave local dance tracks. Let’s gooo!” she posted.
The release of Zee Nation Vol. 1 marks another proud moment for the music star. DJ Zinhle has been sharing fan reactions and screenshots of people streaming the album on her Instagram story. She described the project as personal and powerful: “From my heart to yours – Zee Nation Vol. 1 is out now. Made with love, purpose, and so much gratitude. Let the healing begin.”
Joining DJ Zinhle in celebrating women in music is South African singer-songwriter Cici, who also received a special shoutout from Apple Music. Cici is featured on the cover of Apple Music’s ALPHA playlist. She shared, “I’m on the cover of Apple Music’s ALPHA playlist! The playlist features my track Konakele + other tracks from amazing female artists. Alpha is a space for redefining the meaning of a woman’s power. Power doesn’t have to be about fighting, standing up or changing history. The power of these artists lies in their existence. From there flows truth, authenticity, vulnerability, nuanced representation.”
