Keeping his fans informed about all his exciting new ventures, Khaya on Wednesday tweeted: “What’s next 4 me>> Ill be hosting a new TV show on @Mzansimagic starting in Nov called GospelAlive an working on a Gospel album release 2014”
After being crowned the winner of Idols in 2012, Khaya released his debut album, For You, a secular offering that includes the rendition of Nicki Minaj’s ‘Super Bass’ he sang for the reality competition. But as the son of a pastor and a strongly religious person, the talented 25-year-old has a strong passion for gospel music, and this upcoming album is a sure-fire sign that this is actually where his heart lies.
Khaya was named Best Newcomer at the Metro FM awards and won Best R&B/Soul/Reggae Album at the SAMAs earlier this year. He has also been nominated in the Most Gifted Newcomer category for the upcoming 10th annual Channel O Africa Music Awards.
