Fast-growing anthem Empini is an affirmation of love between two people who vow to go to all odd to make their union work, says songstress Kelly Khumalo.
Khumalo debuted a few tracks from her album Tvoa to an intimate audience, in conjunction with live streaming to the rest of the country, on social media.
The launch was presented by her close friend Somizi Mhlongo. Tvoa (the voice of Africa) is aptly named because Khumalo sees herself as bringing her voice to the continent and speaking up about pertinent issues that affect people's daily lives.
These include issues close to her heart such as women abuse, patriarchy, family values, spirituality and culture.
The album speaks about these issues and delves deeper into what she says has been in her heart and on her mind.
During the album's listening session, Khumalo was presented with a plaque by reality TV star and Idols judge Mhlongo and Universal Records.
Tears streamed down the star's face as she accepted her award for having her single reach "gold" status.
