Toya Delazy seems to be doing things differently this year. There is no doubt that fans did not see it coming. They were all surprised when she began sharing videos of herself singing in her mother tongue, Zulu.
Many wondered what was happening to her. While she looked like she was enjoying making the videos, fans said it was unlike her. The star has finally opened up about them. She said,
“So when I sing in English, you guys appreciate it, love it, and think I’m learned. But when I sing in Zulu, my mother tongue, ubhemile uToya.”
She further explained that she was embracing her heritage and urged her fans to do the same to preserve their African languages.
“We need to learn to remove the preconditioning of not appreciating our own selves and who we are in essence because if we do not appreciate that, this is how we lose our languages. I’m embracing mine. ”
