Zingah to release new music after retirement

South African rapper Sipho Mkhize better known as Zingah is making a return to music after his retirement.

Taking to social media, he announced that he has something coming up.

“I know I’m really in my duffel when I’m making two songs or more at the same time. #HimothyTheBoy is gonna be kinda crazy,” he wrote.

In his mentions, a tweep asked if he was not in retirement.

“I also had convinced myself about walking away, but it was a lie,” he replied.

The rapper later announced he was venturing into the podcast world with Choppin It With Bhuda T. 

“There was no better time, especially with my retirement from the music. I wanted to do other things, so this is just one of the things I’m spending my time doing. It just came with the stage of my life that I am in, which is that I want to do more,” he told TshisaLIVE.

For someone who has been in the music industry for years, his transition to the world of broadcasting had some challenges, he admitted: “I somehow have to acquire some sense of journalism in this space, which I’ll learn and adjust to. There’s also an element of broadcasting.”
