Thabo Mdluli kicked right into hosting duties introducing the last Top10 contestants.
I Want To Sing Gospel Top 10 sang as a group "Greater is He that is in me....Haleluja, halelujaaa. He is worthy to be praised, He is Worthy to be praised". The show began and what a way to open it, I loved the song...it had all the Joyous Celebration elements in it. The judges were; Lindelani Mkhize, Palesa Mocuminyane and Bigboy Mlangeni.
So the contestants were in duets and here's how it went down:
NONTSIKELELO AND THABANI
They sang Potter's House; they sang well...it was a good duet and complemented each other very well. I felt that Nontsikelelo was much stronger though when they were singing The Potter's House. Thabani is talented but I don't see him winning this show, maybe I haven't seen the best of him. Lindelani said "the house was on fire", Palesa said there was so much talent in South Africa and Bigboy was blown away.
THANDO AND MVUSELELO
These two sang "Excellent is your name", The less said about the Chiskop girl the better....she must go, her time is up. Mvuselelo is very talented ubhuti undicingisa ematenteni. The judges ofcourse were impressed with Mvuselelo with Palesa saying she will buy his CD, and then she said Thando matched Mvuselelo....ha ha ha; excuse me Thando was nowhere to be seen.
NOMBULELO AND MALCOLM
They sang Prayer which Nkqubeko felt it was difficult but boy oh boy they took me through a journey and for a moment I was looking for my handkerchief as tears were flowing when Miss Tshefu (Nombulelo) was singing. The anointing in those voices, deservedly so they got a standing ovation from the audience and Lindelani. Palesa said they were perfect and Bigboy..."out of this world". There is purity in Nombulelo's voice....I love her, I am rooting for her
NHLAKANIPHO AND NOZIPHO
They performed Power in the Name of Jesus / Alikho igama, they are also talented but to be honest I don't see Nozipho going very far in this competition. Nhlakanipho is one of my favourites...I just love his voice and the way he commands that stage.
NQOBILE AND SAMKELISIWE
The only thing special in their performance was Samkelisiwe, she was alone in that duet. Nqobile sounded like a scratched CD....I couldn't help it but laugh. He is the reason Karabo is no longer in the show and he just proved why he was not supposed to be the Top 10. I disagreed with everything those judges were saying when it comes to Nqobile's performance....they were just trying to make him feel good...ubhedile qha.
I want to see Nqobile and the Chiskop girl eliminated...oh whilst at it, can we get real judges who will not be afraid to tell it like it is instead of sucking up all the time.
Here are my favourites:
Nombulelo, Nhlakanipho, Samkelisiwe, Mvuselelo and Thabani
What's your take guys?
