On the 25th of November, Nadia Nakai delivered a performance that garnered attention, but not necessarily for the right reasons. Sharing a snippet of her act on Instagram, she captioned it with a simple “Was special.”

@nxasane_sl:
“Did I just Zodwa [Wabantu] on stage?”
@itsjustmegambino:

Amidst the controversy, Nadia Nakai has also been open about her struggle with grief following the untimely death of AKA in February. In a recent media appearance reported by Sunday World, she expressed her feelings of being let down by God after such a tragic event.
“The fact that something so tragic had happened, I felt so let down by God. I had never experienced anything like that ever. It was a shock to my system because his funeral was the first funeral I ever attended.”
Speaking about her emotional well-being, Nakai shared, “I don’t know what the process to heal is. I don’t feel like I’ve healed. I don’t know what that looks like because I’ve never done this before. I am learning as I grow, so I wouldn’t be able to advise anyone navigating grief.”
