DJ Zinhle Biography: Age, Children, Boyfriend, Net worth, Houses, Cars, AKA

Many would think she is a lesbian because she dresses like a tomboy but the artist is a proud mom and has a boyfriend. She never anticipated to be a DJ, but look at her now. “My brother Zak owned a company that hired out sound equipment, and he had so much love for music that he would always de-stress through mixing vinyls at home.

All is revealed when Zinhle spoke to MacG on his podcast from how her dressing is linked to being a lesbian to being a career mom.

DJ Zinhle and AKA

The duo met at a show after Zinhle slid into AKA’s DM asking for a collabo. “I knew him because I had DM’d him,” mentioned the DJ. “I just messaged him one day, ‘hey I would like to do a song with you’ and he was like ‘yo cool…you have the beat send it to me.” After spending a lot of time in each other’s company, the two hit it off and well that was the beginning of a relationship.“Just a day after hanging out together, we decided to make our relationship official,” Zinhle said.

Despite their ugly fallout, Zinhle and AKA are good co-parents to their daughter Kairo. “No we were good honestly I won’t lie we were just good together. I think being so different made us click like we were so different like we just worked out and made sense.” DJ Zinhle mentions how she initiated the idea of having a baby and AKA welcomed the proposition as he was sure he wanted a baby with her and nobody else..”

Unfortunately in 2015 when Zinhle found out that the AKA had cheated on her with Tv personality Bonang Matheba, she broke up with him. She was weeks away to giving birth to their daughter Kairo.  In 2018 however Bonang and AKA call it quits when things between them got ugly. Zinhle at that time is dating a businessman (Brendon Naidoo) who turns out to be a fraudster. As the two are now single, they rekindle their love in 2019 until January 2020 when they split up again.

Past relationships

“I’ve always had an incredible love life, I’ve always had an amazing love life. For real though, I’ve always been in good relationships,” said Zinhle. The DJ had a college boyfriend who was her “first”. Even if the first cut is the deepest, the relationship comes to an end due to the demands of her budding DJ career.

DJ Zinhle comments on companies asking for free performances during Covid-19

The DJ is concerned about companies and organisations asking artists to give free performances. On her Twitter timeline she says, “Am I the only artist who takes offense when a reputable company/organization asks for a free performance. Like, njani? How am I gonna risk my life going out to record a stream for free when I haven’t had an income for 3 months.”

She points out how she is risking her life to go and stream for free when she hasn’t made an income in three months due to the lockdown. Zinhle is not the only artist facing effects of the Covid-19 pandemic and lack of income.

Their dream is to empower young females interested in a career in the entertainment industry.
