## Bio

Simphiwe Majobe Nhlangulela took the stage name Simmy and signed with EL World Music in 2018, the year that changed everything. Her debut album Tugela Fairy arrived with "Ngiyesaba", "Ubala", and "Umahlalela" - singles that pushed her into prominence and earned the record a platinum certification from RiSA. Two years later she released Tugela Fairy (Made of Stars), a second studio album that carried the name forward. The trajectory from signing to platinum to sequel happened fast, and it stuck.
