When she was asked to sing a song in church, Prudence Noxolo Mkhize from Dwaleni did not know that one day she would be releasing a single.
Also known as the Queen of Glam, she has recently launched her first single titled “Umusa” (meaning “grace”).
This 31-year-old started singing at the age of 14. Her parents were pastors at the Apostolic Faith Mission Church.
Mkhize is now sharing the word of God through her own music.
“I moulded my talent in church after being asked one day during a service in my pre-youth period to lead in a song. I was very nervous, because I did not believe in myself, although with fear in my heart, I started singing. The feedback I received on that day helped me believe in myself. By the age of 20, I had already gained confidence in my voice and I am now a worshipper in church.”
According to her, the impact she makes in the lives of her audience keeps her singing.

She said she was inspired to write this song because of God’s grace in her life and hopes that it will inspire others.
“I have seen the love of God and when I look at where He took me, tears roll down my eyes, because it has been a very long journey. I just need to thank my Heavenly Father for what he has done for me. I want to encourage someone out there to not give up on their dreams through this song, because your time will come. I know this song will help others understand that it is possible for them too.”
