CHOMEE RETURNS WITH “TJOVITJO (BAFANA IS BACK)” -A CELEBRATION OF SOUTH AFRICA’S FOOTBALL CULTURE

The “queen of dance” is back, this time to set the streets, stadiums and stages alight with unstoppable football fever and rhythm.

 South African music icon and “Queen of Dance” Chomee makes a powerful return with her brand-new single and music video, TJOVITJO (Bafana Is Back), a high-energy football-inspired anthem celebrating the passion, spirit and unity of South African supporters.

Blending stadium chants, infectious rhythms, crowd energy and unmistakable local flavour, TJOVITJO captures the feeling of match days, kasi football culture, packed taverns, road trips, vuvuzelas and the electric atmosphere that surrounds the beautiful game in South Africa.

Arriving at a time when excitement around South African football continues to build ahead of the upcoming Bafana Bafana squad announcement and the road to Mexico 2026, the song is already generating strong reactions across social media, football conversations and supporter communities.

Known for creating timeless moments in South African music and dance culture, Chomee brings together nostalgia, celebration and modern football energy in a way that feels both authentic and proudly local.

“This is more than just a football song. It’s about the vibe, the people, the culture and the pride we feel when we stand behind our national team. I wanted to create something that feels proudly South African and brings people together again,” Chomee says.

Accompanying the release is a beautifully crafted music video featuring Chomee’s signature dance energy, vibrant choreography and powerful visual storytelling inspired by South African football culture. The video showcases beautifully choreographed dancers, energetic crowd scenes and emotionally charged football-inspired moments that reconnect audiences with the unforgettable atmosphere and unity experienced during the iconic 2010 football era in South Africa.

Adding to the emotional connection and visual scale of the production are scenes shot at the historic Soccer City Stadium and Orlando Stadium – two venues deeply connected to South African football memories and national pride.

“TJOVITJO is about the people, the energy and the feeling football brings to South Africans. From the kasi to the stadium, this is our sound, our vibe and our moment.” 

“This moment feels like a homecoming for me. I’ve been away, growing and evolving, but coming back with TJOVITJO feels powerful. It’s not just a return to music, it’s a return to the heartbeat of the people, to the energy of the streets and the love South Africans have always shown me.”

Driven by supporter culture, influencer participation, football conversations, lifestyle content and fan engagement across digital platforms, TJOVITJO is positioning itself as a soundtrack for football lovers, match-day celebrations and South African sporting pride.
