WATCH | Xae's Idols SA performance that slayed Mzansi
She had fans eating out of the palm of her hand
Someone needs to tell the boys on Idols SA that they need to get their act together because the girls, and Xae in particular, are showing them flames.
Xae is one of the dark horses in the race to win this season of Idols and showed her worth on Sunday with a powerful performance of SZA's Broken Clocks.
I liked this perfomance#IdolsSA #Xae #TeamXae pic.twitter.com/dSqUHzNz06

Broken Clocks😊❤️🎶

She brought just enough street to the performance to have everyone stand in applause and left Randall speechless.
The other judges were equally impressed, with Somizi shouting “genius” and Unathi calling it “brilliant!”.
The streets were also a mess and soon flooded social media with memes and messages praising her.
