Lordkez’s “4Sho” Reaches the Top 20 on South African Radio as She Marks a Historic Double Airplay Achievement. Lordkez is experiencing a significant moment on South African radio with a remarkable milestone she has never reached before.
Lordkez’s “4Sho” Cracks SA Radio Top 20 As She Celebrates First-Ever Double Airplay MilestoneThe R&B artist from Kimberley has disclosed that her latest track, “4Sho”, featuring the well-known hip-hop artist Kwesta, has made its way into the Top 20 of South African radio chart rankings. This success comes as Lordkez keeps building on the remarkable energy surrounding her music.
In an Instagram post celebrating this news with her “Gemz,” Lordkez expressed her joy, sharing that two of her songs are currently being played on the radio at the same time.
“Aweh Gemz! 💎 this week my new single ‘4Sho’ entered the top 20 SA artists on the radio, and this is the first time in my life I have 2 songs on radiooooooo 😭🥹,” she wrote.
This accomplishment adds to the growing list of milestones in Lordkez’s career, particularly following the success of her song “Aweh,” which had a standout remix featuring Cassper Nyovest, and became a notable radio hit in 2025. The track maintained a strong position on the charts while receiving considerable airplay across numerous South African stations.
“4Sho” is now transitioning that success into a new phase.
Released in late August 2026 under Stay Low, this collaboration blends Lordkez’s nostalgic R&B sound with Kwesta’s distinctive lyrical flair. The song further illustrates the artist’s capability to navigate between contemporary styles and the retro-inspired elements that form her musical essence.
This single also follows a series of achievements, including her appearance on the COLORS Show with “Wena Fela” and ongoing recognition for her artistry. The music video, which was directed by Fred Kayembe, has been making waves since its premiere.
Beyond the chart progress, Lordkez reached out to her global audience, inviting her followers to share their locations as they listen.
“ALSO …. let me know which part of the world you’re listening from – I wanna see sumn real quick,” she added.
Then came the statement that has intrigued fans about the future beyond “4Sho”.
“(Album coming soon).”
For Lordkez, whose artistic journey spans early works like Charcotta and midsummer to the critically acclaimed Testament, for which she won a SAMA for Best R&B/Soul Album, as well as You, Me & The 90’s, having two songs simultaneously on radio marks a notable advancement in her career.
She has continually forged her own path by melding nostalgic R&B influences with contemporary South African sounds, and the recent radio achievement further emphasizes the growing appeal of her unique approach.
With “4Sho” rising through the airwaves and her audience around the world responding to her call, Lordkez seems to be entering yet another thrilling chapter in her career.
If her album teaser is any indication, the Gem of the Charts may have more to unveil before the year concludes.
