There are voices that carry melodies — and then there are voices like Ze2’s, that carry moments. The Durban-based vocal powerhouse, born Zethu Nhlangulela, took the Groove Cartel stage and gave a performance that solidified her place among the new wave of South African voices shaping the sound of the moment.
Opening with the electrifying “Inhliziyo (Club Mix)”, by Oskido and X-Wise, Ze2 immediately set the tone — bold, soulful, and emotionally charged. The track’s 2.9M playlist reach is no fluke; her delivery was effortless yet layered, echoing through the room with both vulnerability and power. It was a full-body experience, drenched in piano-led rhythm and lyrical heart.

Beyond the music, Ze2 also sat down with GCSAPlus for a short Q&A post-performance, sharing insight into her creative choices, her favorite Amapiano vocalists, and the one personal track in her catalog she believes fans are still sleeping on.
With over 13 million streams, 874K+ Shazams, and recent features with the likes of Kabza De Small, Young Stunna, and Amanda Black, Ze2’s momentum is undeniable. Her recent signing with Oskido’s Legend Live marks a new chapter — and if this Groove Cartel performance is anything to go by, she’s only just begun writing her legacy.
Catch the full performance on Groove Cartel SA and Q&A on GCSAPlus.
