After finding herself in a state of trouble due to health-related issues, it was her devoted fans who came to her rescue – and now gospel singer Fikile Mlomo aims to show appreciation by dedicating her latest upcoming EP in honour of her supporters.
News and entertainment publication Daily Sun reports that the singer found herself hospitalised for three months earlier this year. It was later revealed that she needed financial assistance to help cover the costs of a spinal surgery.
At the time, she took to her social media providing fans with an update on her life.
“With whatever is happening, please know that I am very strong. When you see me looking good it’ because I do not want to accept the situation.”
With the assistance of her colleague and fellow gospel artist Thinah Zulu, fans helped the singer by donating large sums of money to cover the medical costs.
Speaking to Daily Sun the singer revealed that the donations came in overflow, which was more than enough to cover the costs of the surgery and help her go back to the studio to record the EP.
“This EP is dedicated to thanking my fans. They must brace themselves because the EP is too emotional and I’m bringing back the Fikile they know. I want to thank everyone who contributed to bringing back my life after I was hospitalised. Big thanks to my brother in God, Thinah Zungu.”
Furthermore, she highlighted that her latest EP was to be released independently to avoid being exploited by record labels.
