Olwethu Mahlasela's remixed version of the Umbedesho (adoration prayer) Methodist Church song was nothing short of creative pure shade.

In the song, which was originally created to be joyous, olwethumahlasela0's controversial version sang about people who buy expensive clothing brands that are out of their budgets. The TikTokker sang her heart out that she used to believe that people who owned pricey clothes and things had a lot of money, but to her surprise, they bought their things on credit.
