I found the first South African-House music video, and artists that I had heard a few years back! I have been trying to find this song for the longest, but me being new to South African music, I could not remember the name of either the artists or song. While searching online a few months ago, getting all caught up in my newly discovered love, Amapiano❤️I finally found top music producer Heavy-K-I knew his name was Heavy something??🤷🏾♀️🙃

While trying to remember the song ‘Sweetie,’ I could picture the female artist in my head and different scenes in the video, but I did not even know her name….but today I finally found THIS SONG and video!
I remember some years back, Nokwazi's powerful, commanding voice immediately pulled me in, along with her strong presence in the video. (South Africa's female artists are the shiznit!) I played the song several times that day, but for some reason, I didn’t really go back to listening to Afro-House on a regular. (This was also around the time when I was listening to a lot of Nigerian artists)
I was not aware of who, what, or when this African-House movement started, all I knew was where. Also at the time, I did not know of any other South African producers that was putting out this type of music, so it was the only African-House song that I ever heard, up until a few months ago!
(Well, really, I had listened to another collaboration by these two artists, but ‘Sweetie’ was the song that I liked the best.)
So I was actually watching the beginning of what is now a powerful music movement, South African-House, and didn’t even know it!
And you already know, this song is on repeat right now, as I am writing!💃🏾Well sweetie sweetie!…Ahhhhh! Well sweetie sweetie! Ahhhhh! We lavo lavo!..Ahhhh! We lavo lavo! Ahhhhh!
