Congratulations to South African music industry rising star and Bacardi sensation Jelly Babie! The teenager is over the moon after buying her first car.
Jelly Babie is picking up from her success in 2023, when she made the exciting leap of moving out of her parent’s house and securing her apartment.
The rising star rose to fame after collaborating on a few songs with the late Vusi Ma R5.
Jellie Babie on leaving school in grade 11
In 2023 Jelly Babie opened up to Culture Spotlight about the reasons behind her decision to leave school. She highlighted that the constant reminders and condolences from her peers made it difficult for her to focus on her studies.
“Honestly speaking, I left school after Vusi R5’s funeral. When I got to school, people kept telling me how sorry they were and asking me about R5, and I couldn’t concentrate at school. The teachers would call me into the staff room, asking me about R5, how I’m healing, and even the treatment I was getting,” said Jelly Babie.
