Soulful, lyrical, beautiful – these are but a few words to describe former Idols SA contestant, Lloyiso Gijana’s cover of Adele’s hit track ‘Easy on Me’. This much-anticipated song has been in the spotlight recently after a Capetonian DJ added a unique flair to it (leaving the country moving and shaking). But Lloyiso is the latest talent to add a touch of pizzazz to this track – and we are moved!
The YouTube sensation, who hails from Port Elizabeth, is not only dazzling South Africa with his soulful voice, but he’s also a songwriter and producer – talk about having it all!
His voice reached ears and hearts globally after posting covers on Facebook, before embracing the colourful and creative world of YouTube, and boy does his music leave you teary-eyed and seeing stars! You might remember his songbird voice while performing covers of Justin Bieber’s ‘Anyone’, Sam Smith and Demi Lovato’s ‘I’m Ready’ and Rihanna’s ‘What now’.
Currently, this musical genius is trending at number 9 in the music category on YouTube for his rendition of Adele’s popular track. In addition, he made his TikTok debut in 2020, which generated tens of millions of viewers and attracted the attention of many other labels globally.
