31/10/2022

The latest Idol SA episode airing Sunday night kicked off with a top 4 of

Nozi, Thapelo, Ty Loner, and Zee. However,

Ty was not voted out as he did not get enough votes from the public.

The remaining top 3 had to choose songs by respected diva (“talented female, maybe with a bit of justified ego”) and Devo (male version).

Artists on this list include legends such as Aretha Franklin, Mariah Carey, and Luther Vandross.

The second performance had to be the first audition song on the journey to see how far the contestants had come. And her final performance was the judge’s decision.

Nozi sang her one powerful song, Try a Little Tenderness by Aretha Franklin, Nozi started with earnings. Judge Somiji Mlongo said she owns her work and said the presentation was “beautiful”.

Her Thembi Seete, an actress and judge, said Nozi had settled on the stage. I was happy.

 

Mhlongo described her last three as “vocal powerhouses”. It will be interesting to see who can break out and take the lead.

Nozi next performed H.E.R’s Best Part and the judges chose her for Andra Day’s I Rise Up.

She next performed Mpilwenhle’s Monica classic Her Angel of Mine, and the judges praised her version. Seete added that Mpilo’s voice is an instrument and she played every note on J.R. Bogopa, adding, “You are a vocal gymnast.”

In her second performance, she performed A Long Walk by Marais’ Ke Mo Afrika and Jill Scott.

After some controversy last week, Police Officer Tapero Moromo showed why he came all this way. After praising his performance last week, Somizi’s diva choice fell to Kelly Khumalo’s Esphambanweni.

Sapelo led the audience into the church.
