Spirit of Praise is preparing for a major return with a series of new releases leading up to the arrival of Spirit of Praise 12. The gospel music collective has confirmed a release schedule that will see three singles and their accompanying music videos arrive across October and November 2026. The rollout begins with “Mmeli Wami,” featuring Nothando Hlope, followed by “Size Kuwe,” featuring Sindi Ntombela, and then “We Worship You,” featuring Takie Ndou. Each single will receive its own release day, with the corresponding music video arriving the following day. The full Spirit of Praise 12 album is scheduled to follow on 13 November 2026, giving gospel music listeners a clear sequence of new music to anticipate.
The first release in the Spirit of Praise 12 rollout is “Mmeli Wami,” featuring Nothando Hlope. The single is scheduled for release on 23 October 2026, with the official music video following on 24 October 2026. The two-day rollout gives listeners an opportunity to hear the song before experiencing its visual presentation. Nothando Hlope’s involvement adds another vocal presence to the upcoming Spirit of Praise release and places the song at the start of the album campaign. For fans following the group’s new music, “Mmeli Wami” will provide the first preview of what Spirit of Praise 12 has in store.
The second single, “Size Kuwe,” will feature Sindi Ntombela and is scheduled to arrive on 30 October 2026. Its music video will follow on 31 October 2026, continuing the release pattern established with the first single. The timing means listeners will receive new Spirit of Praise music on consecutive Fridays, followed by visual content on Saturdays. This creates a steady rhythm throughout the rollout rather than releasing all the new material at once. “Size Kuwe” will therefore serve as the second introduction to the upcoming Spirit of Praise 12 album.
The third single in the release schedule is “We Worship You,” featuring Takie Ndou. The song is set for release on 6 November 2026, while its music video is scheduled for 7 November 2026. This places the final single just one week before the full album release. The timing makes “We Worship You” the last scheduled preview before listeners can access the complete Spirit of Praise 12 project. With Takie Ndou joining the release as a featured artist, the single adds another voice to the sequence of new music leading into the album.
The full Spirit of Praise 12 album is scheduled for release on 13 November 2026. By that point, listeners will have already been introduced to three songs from the project through the singles and their accompanying videos. The album will bring those releases together with the rest of the material that makes up the new Spirit of Praise project. For fans of South African gospel music, the release represents the next chapter in the Spirit of Praise catalogue. The confirmed date also gives listeners a specific day to look forward to as the three-week rollout reaches its final stage.
The release strategy places considerable attention on both music and visual content. Each of the three singles will arrive one day before its corresponding music video, allowing the songs to establish themselves before the visual releases follow. This approach gives audiences multiple moments to engage with each track rather than receiving the audio and video at the same time. It also keeps Spirit of Praise 12 in focus throughout the weeks leading up to the album. The schedule provides a clear path from the first single through to the complete project.
The featured artists are another important part of the upcoming releases. Nothando Hlope, Sindi Ntombela and Takie Ndou each appear on a different single, giving the rollout three distinct featured collaborations. Their participation means the singles will introduce listeners to different vocal performances as the album campaign develops. The featured artists also form a central part of how each song has been presented in the release information. For audiences who follow South African gospel artists, their involvement adds another reason to pay attention to the individual singles before the full album arrives.
The confirmed schedule gives Spirit of Praise fans several dates to follow from late October into November. “Mmeli Wami” arrives on 23 October, with its video on 24 October, while “Size Kuwe” follows on 30 October and 31 October. “We Worship You” then arrives on 6 November, with the video scheduled for 7 November. The full Spirit of Praise 12 album follows on 13 November 2026. With each release building toward the full project, the rollout keeps the focus firmly on new gospel music from Spirit of Praise.
Spirit of Praise 12 is therefore set to arrive after a structured sequence of singles and music videos that introduces listeners to the project ahead of its full release. The campaign begins with Nothando Hlope on “Mmeli Wami,” continues with Sindi Ntombela on “Size Kuwe” and reaches its final single preview with Takie Ndou on “We Worship You.” Each track has a confirmed single and video release date, giving fans a clear schedule to follow. The full album will then arrive on 13 November 2026, completing the rollout and making the wider project available to listeners. With the release dates now set, Spirit of Praise 12 is officially on the way, and the countdown to the new album has begun.
