It is well-known that the City is no stranger to endless talent, and the pair, who are yet to be located, is no exception. Known as Millicent Nhlanhla, the woman singing in the TikTok video has captured the hearts of many viewers, along with her partner Thabani. A video of the singing couple, posted by user @yvettelondon0 on TikTok, recently went viral with 1.4 million likes and more than 47 000 comments.
@yvettelondon0 What an AMAZING Voice, they are homeless??? WHY! She needs an agent, the right agent that will take care for her as well as promote her……Somebody Please #capetownsouthafrica #homelesspeople #homeless #capetownhomeless #thevoice #musicpromoters ♬ original sound – Yvette London423
One TikTok user, @coachfe (Felicia Danielle), captured the moment on video when her tour guide, Dion Fabe led her group through The Company’s Garden. ‘There we found magic! We could hear this beautiful crystal clear voice and soulful guitar playing as we approached this couple. I immediately grabbed my phone and started recording. I could have stayed and listened to them the rest of the day!’
@yvettelondon0 We were outside Desmond TuTu’s church and we walked upon these two in the gardens. Her voice is amazing. We are trying to locate her and get her contact info. #southafrica #singing #sheisamazing #repost #homelesspeople #capetownhomeless ♬ original sound – Yvette London423
After receiving so much attention online, the duo created their own TikTok account, under the username @7stw4band (Street Wise Band). Here’s an update:
