Title: “DJ Zinhle Applauded as Black Motion Reunites: Mörda and Thabo Smol Make Amends”
Renowned artist DJ Zinhle is receiving notable recognition on social media following the reconciliation of her husband, Mörda, and Thabo Smol, marking the return of Black Motion.
Mörda, known as Bongani Mohosana, and Thabo Smol, whose real name is Thabo Mabogwane, experienced a tumultuous musical breakup in 2022. Originating from the streets of Soshanguve in 2010, they ascended to international stardom as the dynamic duo behind the iconic Afro-house group, Black Motion.
Their separation two years ago, attributed to “creative differences” and individual projects, left fans stunned. While portrayed as amicable, the reality was far from it.
Mörda’s alleged intrusion into Black Motion’s premises, where he reportedly seized recording equipment and other assets, escalated the situation. Legal action ensued, resulting in Mörda’s compelled return of the items by order of the Johannesburg High Court.
Initially, DJ Zinhle faced unwarranted blame for the Black Motion rift due to her marriage to Mörda. However, Thabo Smol refuted these accusations in February, absolving the Umlilo sensation of any involvement.
Kabelo ‘Problem Child’ Koma assumed Mörda’s role, enabling Black Motion to persevere.
In an unexpected twist, Mörda and Thabo Smol have reconciled, marking a new chapter for Black Motion.
Earlier this week, Smol, the percussionist, teased fans with a preview of Black Motion’s forthcoming track, “Takala Zwino,” featuring Mörda as a solo artist alongside Afrikan Roots and DJ Bucks. The single is set for release on May 20th.
Smol elaborated on the song’s genesis, highlighting the collaborative spirit that reignited their partnership.
Twitter users expressed elation at the renewed harmony between Mörda and Thabo Smol, humorously crediting DJ Zinhle for facilitating the reconciliation.
Chris Excel:
“I extend my gratitude to DJ Zinhle for facilitating the return of our musical genius to grace us with exceptional music 😭🔥”
Bhovu:
“We eagerly anticipate their reunion.”
Rodney:
“This marks a monumental moment.”
“What becomes of ‘Problem Child Ten83,’ who served as Mörda’s replacement?”
DJ Zinhle’s commendable support has been instrumental in fostering unity within the Black Motion fraternity, heralding a promising era of musical collaboration and innovation.
