News: Elaine (@elaineofficial_) announces new debut album and single







South African R&B sensation Elaine is set to make waves in the music industry once again with the announcement of her upcoming debut album and the release of her new lead single, "Waiting On You," this Friday, August 2nd.

Elaine, whose full name is Ndivhuwo Elaine Mukheli, shared the exciting news with her fans, revealing the single's official cover art and expressing heartfelt gratitude for their patience and continued support.

"This doesn't even feel real but I'm so excited that we're finally here. The first single from my debut album is yours this Friday. Thank you for your patience, Shining Stars. I can't wait to share my journey with you (the ups and downs) and bring you into this little world that I've created. This music means so much to me, and I hope that it does the same for you as it's done for me. A special thank you to everybody involved. Waiting on you is out August 2nd", she captioned.

Elaine's journey to stardom has been remarkable. She made her breakthrough with her critically acclaimed 2019 debut EP, "Elements," which became a Platinum-certified bestseller in South Africa and made her the first independent female artist to simultaneously have a No. 1 album on both the iTunes and Apple Music charts.

In 2020, her EP "Elements" was nominated for R&B Album of the Year at the South African Music Awards. Elaine's career took a significant leap forward when she signed with Columbia Records in late 2020, transitioning from an independent artist to a major label star.

Elaine's announcement has left her fans and the music community eagerly anticipating the fresh sounds and emotional depth her new single promises to deliver.

Stay tuned for what promises to be another milestone in her impressive career.
