The pair were on the cover of Spotify Africa, under the Made In South Africa banner, fresh off the release of their collab.
"In a cover streak! Big thank you to @spotifyafrica for making us the Made In South Africa playlist cover. Your support means so much to us. Keep streaming Buya Ekhaya, Siyabonga."
South African singer Donald Moatshe raved about the duo, saying they are setting the bar high.
"These two represent a dream far beyond their young minds; they can’t even fathom it because they’re still too young. Mawelele and Naledi represent exactly why I’m still in the music business, probably why I will always be in it too. Their rise came at exactly the perfect time when the RnB and Afro pop genre in Mzansi was slowly fading and not being respected, and came and saved the day. Two extremely young people came and saved this industry, and most of people aren’t even aware of it, but asikho lapho," he shared.
