Pearl Thusi is dropping her first single with Maskandi artist Ihhashi Elimhlophe after building up a DJ career that's seen her play over 125 gigs since her Makhelwane Festival debut. The track blends Afro-house, Amapiano, Maskandi, and deep tribal sounds, and when someone on X suggested she didn't write it, she clapped back saying she actually did.
Beyond DJing, she's stacked up acting credits in Quantico, Queen Sono, Wu Assassins, and the upcoming Paramount+ series Average Joe with Deon Cole. She also co-owns Black Rose Gin, launched the Black Pearl Collection haircare line with Afrobotanics, and became MAC Cosmetics' first African collaborator.
