Life edit
She was born in Tete in 1985. Her parents were Sebastião Mabuze Madade and Natália Paulo Zimba.[1] At an early age she became interested in dance. She was educated at SOS Elementary School and ISCTEM - Instituto Superior de Ciências e Tecnologias de Moçambique where she studied law, but her ambition was music.[2] She began work as a dancer working for the Mozambique singer "MC Roger".[1] Eventually she branched out and created a dance group named "Sweet Dance ". Her first released song was "Como ela Dance" in 2006 with a followup of '' Muyive''.[1] The following year she won a prize from Rádio Moçambique for her first CD. Further songs were released including joint creations with DJ Ardiles in 2012, Mr. Kuka, DJ Damost and Nstar.[2]
She is popular and her concerts are well attended. She caused some upset when reports of her performance considered her behaviour inappropriate on a day that been named as Children's Day and the audience consisted of parents and children.[3]
