Gospel sensation Xolly Mncwango is one of South Africa’s most inspiring voices in contemporary gospel music, known not just for her soul-stirring vocals, but for the heart behind every song she sings. Her mission is clear — to bring hope, healing, and encouragement to all who listen.

After years of working alongside some of the gospel industry’s most respected names, including Joyous Celebration and Bishop Benjamin Dube, Xolly stepped into the spotlight with her 2020 debut album, Jesu Ungu’Dwala. Since then, her musical journey has only grown stronger, marked by the release of her powerful sophomore project, Unusual.

“I want my supporters to take away a sense of hope, inspiration, and faith from my music,” Xolly shares. “My songs are meant to uplift their spirits and remind them that God is always present, even in the darkest moments.”

Xolly Mncwango’s music is more than melody — it’s ministry. Her lyrics echo messages of strength, perseverance, and God’s unfailing love. Behind every note is a woman who has poured her life and lessons into her sound.

Her spiritual maturity and connection with her audience shine in hits like Ungukuphila and Healing Power, both of which have resonated deeply with gospel fans across the country. She believes that worship is a powerful remedy — one that can restore broken hearts and renew faith.

“I want my music to inspire trust in God, offer comfort in times of pain, and remind people of their worth and purpose,” she says.

A Defining Moment on Stage

One unforgettable moment in Xolly’s career came during a worship concert, where she saw the true impact of her calling.

“As I sang, I noticed a woman in the front row who was visibly emotional, worshipping with tears streaming down her face. After the concert, she approached me and said my music had carried her through a very painful season. That moment reminded me that I’m walking in my God-given purpose.”

Family, Faith, and Musical Inspiration

Xolly credits her brother and producer, Siyanqoba Mthethwa, for helping shape the unique sound that fans now know and love. She also draws inspiration from gospel great Yolanda Adams, whose timeless songs taught her the value of creating music that endures and uplifts.

At the core of her motivation is her son, who she calls her “precious driving force.”

“Inspiring him through my achievements and leaving behind a legacy of faith and perseverance is one of my greatest purposes.”

A Legacy in the Making
