Makhadzi, the Respected Queen of Bolobedu Music, Faces Language Criticism on Social Media<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Makhadzi, widely acclaimed as the Queen of Bolobedu Music, has found herself under scrutiny for her use of the English language on social media platforms. This talented artist, known for her hectic schedule and numerous bookings, has faced accusations of not showing up at some of her recent gigs. In contrast to her music-centric focus in 2022, it seems that this year has seen a somewhat slower pace for the artist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As a TshiVenda-speaking native hailing from Limpopo, Makhadzi predominantly conducts interviews in her native language to ensure comfort and relatability with her audience. However, there have been occasions when she’s attempted to communicate in English, resulting in mockery and criticism due to her less-than-perfect grasp of the language. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
One recent tweet, directed at Michael “Mr Smeg” Bucwa, known for inviting ZAlebs to lunch, garnered attention as Makhadzi responded in English, leaving many confused about the message’s meaning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
