South African singer, songwriter and pianist Mawelele has released his new album PGLTM, short for Pretty Girls Listen To Mawelele, through gamma. The 16 track project arrived on October 30, 2026, and it is built around love, reassurance, forgiveness and second chances, blending soulful R&B and Afro pop with the heartfelt writing that has carried his rise.

The album brings together a strong cast of collaborators, including Olivetheboy, Kwesta, Danya Devs, Nomfundo Moh, Ndu Browns, Tony Dayimane, Usimamane and Empro. Its engine is Ngiyaz’fela, his single with Kwesta, which reached No. 3 on the Radio Monitor Top 100 Airplay Chart. The title translates to I am in love with you, and its music video passed one million views within four days of release and has since climbed to 1.7 million. The pair’s earlier collaboration, All My Life, has passed 4.1 million streams on Apple Music, 19.7 million on Spotify and 23 million views on YouTube. Ahead of the release, Mawelele hosted an exclusive listening session in Sandton, giving media and invited guests a first listen to the record.

Born Ntokozo Wandile Mawelele in 2002 and raised in the Vaal, he began playing piano at 11 and built his first audience through cover videos posted during lockdown. That path led to a signing with Umuthi Records, the label associated with Blaq Diamond, and his catalogue has now passed 100 million cumulative streams. The album will also meet the stage. gamma., in partnership with Blu Blood, is producing his first South African live tour, opening December 17, 2026 at the iZulu Theatre, Sibaya Casino in Durban, with a Johannesburg date in December and further shows across the country over Valentine’s weekend in 2027. Merchandise is also on the way, giving fans another way into the PGLTM world.
