Babes Wodumo Faces Backlash After Lackluster Performance: “The Spark is Missing, Shem”

The Gqom queen, Babes Wodumo, may need to rethink her approach to live performances as Mzansi has voiced their disappointment! A recent video from one of her shows has fans shaking their heads and expressing criticism on social media.

“Yoh, Babes Wodumo Seems Drained”

The video circulating on Twitter (X) shows Babes giving what can only be described as a lackluster performance. While we recognize that her life has been tough since the passing of her husband, Mampintsha, Mzansi is left questioning her passion for the industry.

Here’s the latest buzz directly from Twitter:

@Ke_Arturo: “Babes appears very exhausted.”

@boyes_lydia: “I feel like Mampintsha used to bring her energy before performances. Without him, something feels off.”

@KMJ1_0: “This career looks over. She needs to make changes before she embarrasses herself even further.”

@TellUnknown: “Is she even interested anymore? She seems uninterested and looks forced. If I were hiring an artist, I’d choose Makhadzi over Babes. No offense.”

Is It Grief or Career Burnout?

Let’s face it—this is the same Babes Wodumo who had everyone dancing to the Wololo everywhere, from clubs to taxi rankings. But in this latest video? Yoh, it feels like she was performing out of sheer duty.

She has certainly faced immense challenges over the past year. Navigating the loss of Mampintsha, managing her career, and adjusting to life as a young widow is no easy feat. Fans believe that the Gqom queen may be struggling between her grief and the need to sustain her music career.

Babes, dear, Mzansi has made its voice heard. Either rekindle that iconic energy that won us over, or take some time to recharge and come back stronger. The stage is not the place for half-hearted efforts. Otherwise, it seems like Makhadzi is ready to claim the throne for good.

Mzansi, what are your thoughts? Should Babes hang up her mic, or pull a Beyoncé and show us her true potential? Share your thoughts in the comments!
