Godgiven Buthelezi
Bio
I'm Godgiven Buthelezi, a recording artist from Mpumalanga, but I currently reside in Durban, a beautiful city situated in the heart of KZN. I write, produce, perform, and publish music. I have published music for more than 40,000 musicians globally to online, community, and commercial radio stations, including music videos for TV channels.
I have always loved coding and web development, which led me to develop my own apps and websites. This eventually resulted in the development of multiple websites and apps for clients from outside the country. I love God with all my heart and all that I am or have, and there is nothing that can separate me from His love. I sing gospel music as an offering of worship to my heavenly Father and to uplift and inspire those who listen to my music. I have explored different music genres but eventually found my calling in gospel music.In 2017, I was auditioned on SA's Got Talent, a show broadcast on ETV, and that is when I realized I needed to start writing gospel music, which led to the release of my album. I was privileged to be featured in six TV interviews: the first three were on 1KZN (Gospel Mix and Memeza) DSTV Channel 260, the next two were on Mpumakapa TV (Big One Up and Ezokholo) DSTV Channel 261, and the fifth was on Starsat TV Gospel Tunes.
In 2023, I collaborated with Sgwili Zuma and Neliswa Vundla on a song I wrote entitled "Ungcwele Jehova," and the song is doing well on Spotify and radio. I'm grateful to all the radio stations that have played the song, including Gagasi FM, Izwi Lomzansi, and many more. It has always been my dream to hear the music I wrote playing on radio and TV, and then, boom—God opened doors for radio playlists and interviews

This song teaches us not to fight our own battles but to allow God to fight for us. It also teaches us to climb...
