Zee Nxumalo’s New Single ‘Awe Mah’ feat. Dlala Thukzin 

One of South Africa’s brightest rising stars, Zee Nxumalo, returns with her new single “Aweh Mah” featuring Dlala Thukzin. A high-energy anthem that lands at a pivotal moment in her career.

Zee Nxumalo has solidified herself at the heart of South African dance music, blending sultry Afro-pop storytelling with the unstoppable pulse of Amapiano. “Aweh Mah” is her first release of 2026 and kicks off a year dedicated to volume, ownership, and continental expansion.

The track has already lived in the public consciousness for months, trending virally on TikTok and soundtracking thousands of user-generated videos before its official drop.

“This one has been sitting with the people for months,” Zee Nxumalo says. “I’ve honestly been anxious in the best way because the snippet just wouldn’t die. Every time I open TikTok, it’s there. It’s rare to feel a song grow before it’s even out. I’m excited that it finally belongs to everyone properly.”

Built on a vibrant, youthful sonic palette, “Aweh Mah” exudes the unapologetic confidence that defines Zee’s presence in South African culture. It’s celebratory, rhythmic, and immediate crafted for dance floors, festival stages, and timelines alike.

In 2025, Zee became South Africa’s most streamed female artist, ending Taylor Swift’s four-year streak at the top of the national charts. Remarkably, she reached this milestone while releasing just one standalone single “Mamma” with the rest of her streaming dominance fueled by features and collaborations. Over 100 million streams later, Zee stood as the most streamed local act of the year.

“Aweh Mah” is more than a follow-up, it’s a statement. With proven streaming power, undeniable cultural presence, and sharpened confidence, Zee Nxumalo starts 2026 at the top and she’s only just getting started.
