The singer took to Instagram to share the exciting news with supporters, expressing gratitude to everyone who contributed to the success of the record and helped turn it into one of her standout releases.
The milestone marks an important chapter for the Durban born artist, whose rise has been shaped by dedication, consistency, and a deep connection to her roots. Since its release, Uthe Uyang’thanda has resonated with listeners across South Africa, earning widespread attention for its heartfelt sound and the seamless blend of contemporary Afro Pop influences with traditional Maskandi elements.

The collaboration brought together three artists whose styles complemented one another naturally. Mjolisi’s celebrated Maskandi influence, Pretty Masompisi’s captivating vocals and Sbahle’s signature delivery helped create a song that connected with a wide audience. The result was a record that found its place among listeners who appreciate both modern sounds and traditional musical storytelling.
Released under Mdunge Music and distributed globally through Africori, the song quickly became one of the artist’s defining releases. Its success reflects not only the strength of the collaboration but also the growing appreciation for music that proudly embraces South African cultural identity while remaining accessible to a broad audience.
For Sbahle, the achievement carries special significance. Her musical journey began at an early age after her talent was recognised by her grandfather, a gifted musician who played both piano and guitar. His encouragement helped nurture her passion for singing and laid the foundation for the artist she would eventually become.
Now, with a Gold certified hit to her name, Sbahle has added another memorable accomplishment to her growing catalogue. As fans continue to celebrate Uthe Uyang’thanda, the singer is already looking ahead, reminding supporters that her latest album Iscoco Sam, is available across digital platforms.
The Gold plaque serves as a powerful reminder of how far she has come and highlights the strong connection she continues to build with audiences through her music.
