SHE is referred to as the "Princess of Africa" - that's Yvonne Chaka Chaka, South Africa's township pop music icon who has consistently made good music for over 20 years. Sowetan spoke to her about her latest and 22nd album, Amazing Man, which is set to be released in stores this week.

Yvonne must stick to teaching old people, she can't sing to save her life. She tried Gospel and only her sons bought the album because they produced it.... ha a, lifebouy and Teaching is what she must stick to.

I prefer her tracks from the 80s. As for the new album; .......nay! I think she should stay away from the microphone. She has a terrible voice.
