It received much critical acclaim. I am currently working on Azanian Love Song, a collaboration with soul singer, MaxHoba inspired by the work of literary giant, Dr Don Mattera.

I spent most of 2011 promoting my book, WENA, around the country. It did very well on the market and is in its 2nd edition print. It was also released internationally and can be bought on amazon.com, another exciting turn was my book beginning to be introduced into the school system.

While surfing the internet one day, I saw that it was voted best cover in 2011 at some institution in London.

In 2008, I posed naked among other South African Celebrities and
personalities, to speak out against Rape and Women Abuse. Stemming from
the underground music scene I was hauled into the mainstream by my song, 'Urongo!' It was on DJ Fresh's Definition of house vol3.

It went on to become the biggest selling song in the country in 2005. Although
I am a household name in the house genre, I am and have always been a Hip Hop and Soul Head. In 2006 I released my debut album, MaMiya Independently in a joint venture between Mobu Records and Huge Entertainment.

The same album was later rerelease by Gallo in 2007 and nominated for a
South African Music Award for Best Urban Pop Album. My 'Women Rights Activities' started in 2003/4 when I was part of, all female poetry collective
Feela Sistah.

Alongside Lebo Mashile, Napo Masheane and Myesha Jenkins, we created a platform for the Woman's voice to be heard. Reviving the dying art of poetry, we catalyzed a movement in the spoken word scene.

We have since then, divided the work load, and are conquering through our
solo careers. I also produce shows, in 2008 I coproduced, Ntsiki Speaks, a one woman poetry play.

At the end of the year I had a launch and booksigning in Tanzania, which went really well. I also had a wonderful show in Zimbabwe.

2011 also saw me develop my style as an mc and I immensely enjoyed all the festivals and events I was invited to mc. An amazing moment was when a big festival increased my payment after the gig, citing that I did an outstanding job.

The year ended with me releasing a single called ‘Ex’s Cherry,’ another one of my spoken word and deep house music collaborations. It is on dj Josi Chave’s album, Black Frequency, which ia available at music outlets nationwide.  

The music video will be released in Jan 2012. It was shot and packaged by my personal friends Pj and Chuck....for free. A true blessing for an indie artist. I also did a collaboration with Skwatta Kamp member, Bozza The Champ, it’s called ‘Kasi Vele’ and will also be released in January.

Besides all the social responsibility work i did, on a more personal note, a young lady i have been mentoring since 2006 recently bought her 1st car....that ended my year on a very warm and fuzzy note.
