Moneoa on new track: I hope that it was worth the wait

Johannesburg – After being out of the limelight for a while, singer Moneoa is finally back with some new music. The star has reworked one of her previously released songs called Ziphi Inkomo.

In an Instagram post Moneoa explained why she had been gone for so long. “So I know I haven’t released music in a WHiiiiiiile (sic),” she started, going on to say: “I take your feedback seriously and a lot of it included me being dubbed 'talented' but also 'under rated'. I felt inadequately adequate if that makes sense… I honestly feel like I needed to find a team that would be able to give that talent and career, the kind of exposure and development it needed.”

Giving more info on her track, the muso said: “ZiphiNkomo is my song. I released it initially in 2014 through my previous album 'Ndim Lo'. I was going to release it as a single but due to some unfortunate circumstances, I couldn’t. I used to cry myself to sleep about it but I also won’t dwell on it because it’s in the past and I made a choice to give it to God and not the public.”

So I know I haven’t released music in a WHiiiiiiile. I take your feedback seriously and a lot of it included me being dubbed “talented” but also “under rated”. I felt inadequately adequate if that makes sense... I honestly felt like I needed to find a team that would be able to give that talent and career, the kind of exposure and development it needed. There’s nothing more painful than being stagnant when you know you have what it takes to peak. ZiphiNkomo is my song. I released it initially in 2014 through my previous album “Ndim Lo”. I was going to release it as a single but due to some unfortunate circumstances, I couldn’t. I used to cry myself to sleep about it but I also I won’t dwell on it because it’s in the past and I made a choice to give it to God and not the public. Besides, retrospectively my God is GOOOODOOOOO and He ALWAYS has a magnificent plan for us. I’m actually grateful it happened the way it did because this version of Ziphinkomo gave my song more justice than I could’ve ever dreamed of. The song itself resonates with me more than it ever did because I’m at a stage in my life whereby I can actually relate to it. But I’m also in no rush so no pressure to my mister.???? Here is my gift that I offer to you, my lovers. I hope that it was worth the wait and I hope it sets the right precedent for what I’m about to offer next. Ziphinkomo LINK IN MY BIO.????
