Zintle Mbusi joins Ziyawa KuMhlobo no Slyso.

No one understands the meaning of “baby-steps” like this proud rural girl and Umhlobo Wenene FM’s Afternoon Drive co-host, Zintle Mbusi. This owner of the clothing brand and online store, Own Body Goals says she secretly started taking DJ lessons after a former colleague encouraged her. Zintle says she is ready to share her skills and love for Afro- Tech House music with South Africa. Babe-Zee, as she is affectionately known says, “I am  comfortable and can play other genres, but Afro- Tech represents my high energy and often my companion when I am at the gym”.

She says she is both nervous and excited about joining Ziyawa KuMhlobo as a resident DJ and hopes that she will “inspire other ladies to take up spaces that are thought to be only for men in their chosen careers”.

Babe-Zee admits, she likes taking her time to learn and chase goals and this is evidenced in her journey to becoming a co- host on one of South Africa’s biggest stations, Umhlobo Wenene FM with Luks Gidana. Zintle, served community media in her radio infant years at Nkqubela FM (in Gqberha), Khanya Community Radio (Butterworth) as well as Unitra Community radio where she hosted a number of shows, worked as a reported, news reader and producer. It was when she landed on Umhlobo Wenene FM that she came to merge her media studies, personal experiences and interests that she embraced herself as a brand and influencer.

She has used her influence to benefit different communities. These range from school shoes and sanitary towel collection drives for schools in rural areas. In 2017, Babe-Zee started and continues to host her annual women empowerment seminar, simply called “Dadethu”. Her voice can be heard on a number of adverts as she works as a voice over artist. Babe-Zee says there is a lot that she still wants to achieve and baby-steps are her secret to achieving her dreams.
