How Nozipho Phiri’s Hit “Wangethula” Found Its Way to Her Debut Album — Now Streaming Everywhere

Rising gospel sensation Nozipho Phiri has finally released her soul-stirring single Wangethula, and fans can’t stop talking about it. The track, now available on all digital platforms, carries a powerful testimony and a beautiful backstory that makes it even more meaningful.

Originally, Wangethula was set to be featured on Joyous Celebration 28, as arranged by acclaimed musical director Bello Mpendulo. Nozipho had been lined up to perform the song on the iconic gospel ensemble’s latest album — a dream come true for many artists in the genre.

But plans took a divine turn.

As preparations for Joyous Celebration 28 were underway, Bello Mpendulo had initially planned for Nozipho Phiri to perform Wangethula on the album. However, Nozipho requested that Bello submit a different song instead — a request that led to the inclusion of Uyikho Konke. With Uyikho Konke ultimately replacing the original plan, Wangethula was reserved for her upcoming debut album, where it now features as a powerful and personal offering.

It was a bold and strategic move — and one that is already proving to be a game-changer.

Now officially released, Wangethula is a heartfelt, worship-driven ballad that speaks of God’s mercy, peace, and unwavering presence. Nozipho’s powerful vocals are matched by rich instrumentation and a production quality that sets the tone for what listeners can expect from her full-length debut.

Fans who were looking forward to hearing the song under Joyous Celebration are thrilled to experience it now as part of Nozipho’s personal journey and ministry. The authenticity and emotional depth in the single highlight her growth as a solo artist while still honoring the influence of her Joyous Celebration roots.

If you haven’t listened yet, Wangethula is out and streaming now on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and all other major platforms. It’s more than just a song — it’s a testament to divine timing, purpose, and bold faith.

Keep your eyes on Nozipho Phiri — this is only the beginning.
