NOTA has once again stirred the pot, this time targeting Thandeka Tshabalala after her candid appearance on the Engineer Your Life with Lungelo KM podcast. The music executive took to social media to weigh in on Thandeka's interview, sparking a fresh wave of online debate.
Thandeka sat down with podcaster Lungelo KM on Tuesday, 25 August 2026, for what turned into a deeply personal conversation about navigating public life, privacy, and the pressures of being a visible figure in the industry. During the episode, she addressed her social media clash with Londie London, who had spoken about the situation on the Read the Room podcast days earlier. Londie's take was pointed: "When you go out on social media, and you say what I'm saying about this person is a fact, now that's an allegation."
Thandeka on Being a Public Figure
The conversation on Engineer Your Life went well beyond the Londie drama. Thandeka and Lungelo explored how public life strips people of their privacy in ways that feel fundamentally unnatural. Thandeka reflected on moments such as being filmed on an escalator with someone called Melly without her knowledge, noting how grateful she was that the conversation captured had not been anything sensitive. "Nobody should exist in such a world," she said during the episode.

Her overarching message was one of self-trust, saying that living for others' approval was not something she was willing to do.

@RealTdk1: "Nota leave Thandeka alone. If she has a beef with Londi it's between two women. Why are you inheriting beef that has nothing to do with you. No don't do that."
@l_ledwaba: "Imagine being so emotionally constipated that someone crying scares you into calling a nurse. Some of us process emotions; you just outsource yours to insults."
