The artist, who is signed to Big Zulu’s record label, addressed her critics directly on her Facebook page, expressing her frustration with the negative comments about her weight and the unfounded allegations about her using drugs.

It’s uncalled for.” The singer emphasized that her body is simply changing, and she doesn’t believe the reasons behind it should be questioned or ridiculed.

Lwah further responded to the criticism with a message to her detractors, stating that people often don’t understand the challenges others face. “Ingiphatha kabi ke kodwa le yokuthi ningi belesele ngokuthi ngizacile ngiqedwa insango Ku wrong loko bakwethu,” she wrote, which translates to an appeal for respect and understanding. She continued, “Anoku hlonipha uku shintsha komuntu because sikhula ngeyi ndlela eyinga fani kanti futhi ne zimo esibhekana nazo anizazi but nginga qiniseka ukuthi angizidli izidakamizwa,” urging her followers to respect her journey and not jump to conclusions about her life. Lwah clarified that she does not use drugs and asked her critics to stop spreading such rumors.

She also questioned the unrealistic standards that people impose on others. “Maybe it would be better if you could say Lwah this is how we want you to be and behave but no I am being sworn everyday about my weight and shape??? I know I have flat flat and thin so what should I do?” she wrote, expressing her frustration over being constantly judged for something she cannot control.

In addition to addressing the body-shaming, Lwah hinted at exciting new developments in her career. She revealed that she has new music set to be released this year, signaling that despite the negativity, she remains focused on her craft and committed to her music journey.

Through her powerful response, Lwah Ndlunkulu has sent a clear message to those who criticize her appearance: respect, understanding, and kindness are essential.
