Mzansi’s Tyla and Makhadzi Triumph at BET Awards 2024
South African artists Tyla and Makhadzi shined brightly at the BET Awards 2024, walking away with three awards between them and raising the flag for Mzansi on the global stage. The prestigious event took place on Sunday at the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles, California, showcasing the best in entertainment and recognizing outstanding talent.
Both artists won top awards, demonstrating their immense talent, impact, and global influence. Tyla, the 22-year-old sensation known for her viral hit “Water,” clinched two awards: Best New Artist and Best International Act.
Earlier in the year, she also won a Grammy, solidifying her status as a rising star in the music industry. The Johannesburg-born mega star wowed the audience with a live, safari-themed, high-energy performance of “Jump” from her debut album, featuring American rapper Gunna and Jamaican dancehall artist Skillibeng.
Makhadzi, hailing from Limpopo, won the BET Viewers Choice: Best International Act award. Her win was extra special as it coincided with her birthday, making the celebration even more memorable.
Known for her unique musical style and powerful stage presence, Makhadzi’s success further establishes her as a standout artist. These wins are not only personal achievements but also significant milestones for South African music on the global stage, inspiring future generations of African artists.
New South African Minister of Sport, Arts, and Culture Gayton McKenzie praised their accomplishments on social media platform X, saying, “Things are happening already, congratulations to both ladies.
We want to assure South Africans that we will not be a Ministry that will be content with congratulating artists and creatives only but will go out and unearth more Tyla’s & Makhadzi’s. Help us find more future superstars.”
