What sets Noxy apart is her ability to move naturally between different musical spaces. Whether delivering an intimate love song, a spiritually inspired performance, or a soulful vocal over a dance production, she brings emotional depth and authenticity to her work.

“About nine months ago, I released a six-song project under Amabali Wethu Entertainment. I was fortunate enough to collaborate with some exceptionally talented producers to bring those tracks to life,” said Noxy.

“My upcoming project is a continuation of Volume 1, but it serves as a deeper, more intimate introduction to who I am. It’s a space where I get to share more love with the world.

“Most of the tracks I’m working on are love songs, and the process has been incredibly exciting. I’ve also lined up amazing features with people I truly love and respect.

“On this upcoming project, Amabali Wethu Volume 2, I got to collaborate on a song with Cnethemba Gonelo, one of the best songwriters around, alongside major contributions from producers like Villosoul.

“Looking at Volume 2, we also feature fantastic vocalists like Kaymo Grillz and Rha Punzil, together with producers like Queencess Molly, Momento RSA, and C’kane, adding their own unique energy.

“Producers are truly the pillars behind the music. Without the rhythms and drums they built purely out of love, I wouldn’t have been able to shape these songs. “I am immensely grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with them all, and a detailed overview of my career highlights will follow right after the release.”

Her songwriting and vocal flow reflect true maturity. Rather than simply singing over a beat, Noxy uses melody, phrasing, and storytelling to give each song its own emotional identity.

Her writing draws on lived experiences, relationships, spirituality, and the moments people carry long after they have passed.

In the dance space, her voice becomes both an instrument and a storyteller, adding warmth, nostalgia, and soul to Amapiano and Deep House productions while maintaining a strong sense of individuality.

Noxy represents a generation of artists who understand that music can do more than entertain. It can preserve memories, express love, connect people spiritually, and turn moments from life into something worth remembering, turning life experiences into timeless sound.

When asked how her music career started, she reflected on her childhood.

“My musical journey started at a very young age. I used to sing about absolutely everything around me. I even sang my responses to my elders when they gave me chores, dropping my voice to a lower register to reply. Early in primary school, I fell in love with poetry and realised I could write my own material,” said Noxy.

“There were certain poems I struggled to recite, so I started singing them instead. Growing up, I didn’t have many friends, so I spent much of my time using music to express my feelings.

“I discovered that writing and singing out my deepest pains or loudest joys brought me true happiness.

“Through that isolation, I found my voice and knew exactly what I was meant to do. I kept writing until people took notice and invited me into recording studios during high school.

“That first experience standing in front of a microphone felt completely therapeutic. From that moment on, I knew I could never stop.”

Noxy comes from a family of singers; her mother and her sister are both vocalists.

“My grandmother passed away when I was only nine years old, but my strongest, most vivid memories of her are entirely musical. “As I grew up, I drew deep inspiration from a wide variety of artists across different genres, including Berita, Zahara, Bebe Rexha, Portia Monique, and Mary J. Blige,” said Noxy.

“Honestly, I have always listened to any music that caught my interest, and if I tried to name everyone who shaped me, it would take all day. Their music made me feel alive and comforted. Because music was the sanctuary where I processed my loneliness, pain, and joy, I realised that true happiness lies within it, and I wanted to create that same healing feeling for others.”

Noxy’s music style is deeply rooted in poetry and an overall African musical touch.

“Because my influences are so broad, I don’t confine myself to one specific genre. Instead, my style shifts depending on the song’s message.

“For instance, my song ‘Umdali’ has a spiritual, grounding sound meant to encourage people to draw closer to God, while a track like ‘Be Mine’ is strictly a love song.

“Ultimately, my musical identity is shaped by the collective vision and diverse styles of both past and present South African artists,” said Noxy.
