According to entertainment commentator Phil Mphela, the return of fan-fave Somizi Mhlongo has also not worked in the show's favour.

Phil took to Twitter to report that the current season peaked at only 744 000 viewers in July. He captioned his post:

"TV: Idols SA ratings slump. Season 18 debut month has been a lukewarm affair. The intro of new judges and the return of Somizi seems to have not lured disinterested viewers back. New season peaked at 744K viewers during July — far cry from seasons past debut."
