Anele Zondo (NeyTheBae) Set to Drop 2 Bae’beez In 2024
Ney The Bae is having a BaeBe!
Anele Zondo is a true multi-hyphenate artist, rapper, actress, TV and radio host, fashion aficionado and an all-round entertainer. Fondly known to her fans as Ney The Bae, she kicks off the second part of 2024 with the release of her latest EP, “Vuka.”
“Vuka” means “Wake up” or “Awakening” in Zulu. This project isn’t just an ordinary EP. It is a melting pot of various genres woven together with her smoky voice, wordplay and star studded features. It is not only that; it’s about growth, self-consciousness, and artistic evolution.
Nae shares “My Baes will love this project. I took my time with it and it has been a labour of love. It’s a celebration of everything they love about me, but I am also sharing a different, more vulnerable side of me they haven’t heard.”
Speaking on the inspiration behind the EP: “I dug into my Zulu roots, my love for hip hop and merged the two. I’ve been in the industry for 7 years and I’m at a point where I am awake, self-aware and ready for the next phase of my career…. And life.”
Life is evolving beautifully for Ney The Bae.
“Vuka” is not the only project she is dropping in 2024. She is happy to reveal that she is expecting her first child, also “dropping” in 2024.
The ecstatic mom-to-be said: “Striking a balance between my biological clock and my expanding career has always been something I felt conflicted about. As women it is always put to us to choose between either – focusing on being a mother or the focus is on a career. We are questioned when we consciously choose both.
“Motherhood is a journey that I’ve wished, prayed and longed for for many years and it’s teaching me what is possible when we allow nature to take its course. I’m both nervous and excited – I can’t wait for my audience and fans to this ride with me. I’m going into my 30s with the greatest gifts of all…my Bae-be & my EP,” she said.
