DJ Hlo wins Ukhozi’s Song of the Year – Mzansi react
Ukhozi FM announces DJ Hlo as the winner of the Song of the Year; an event most South Africans anticipate at the last day of every year.
The DJ who is reportedly the first female to win this category was nominated alongside the likes of Makhadzi and Zakes Bantwini.
Taking to social media, she announced her latest win, and people jumped on the post to congratulate her.
She won with the song, Isibani featuring DJ ManzoSA and Siboniso; the award is won by the people’s votes.
THANK YOU.
#Isibani

However, it was disappointing for some netizens, as they expected Zakes Bantwini to take the win home, with his hit single, Osama.
Taking to Twitter, people oozed out their anger and disappointment at Ukhozi FM again, as it’s become an annual act for the radio station to irk some mzansi netizens.

For Zulus to realise that Ukhozi does not represent SA stop forcing it down people’s throats!
For Limpopians to focus on their own stations and stop getting butthurt over what song Ukhozi plays!
See… tribalism avoided!

(@therealRMS1) UKhozi FM is radio station mainly for those who speak or understand isizulu.
You will never hear a Zulu person complaining about the song of the year in Limpopo,Lesedi FM or on any other radio stations.#SongOfTheYear

The disrespect on Amapiano on this country is real. Amapiano carried us through Covid times. Hit after hit beke le beke. Only when the curfew is being lifted kuwina o DJ Hlo esingabaziyo. Hayi this country not even Zakes Bantwini or Sun-El ke. The whole Hlokoloza
