She started officially singing when she was only three years old. Whenever visitors came to her home, she was asked to sing for them. When she was nine, she was taken by Sipho Mnyakeni to sing regularly at church which made gospel music become one of her most significant influence. One day the church invited a famous South African gospel singer Vicky Vilakazi (Joyous Celebration), who discovered her singing at church and took her to Johannesburg. In 2002 she became a member of the Grammy awarded “Soweto Gospel Choir”.
