Elaine’s Flower Business Disappoints Mzansi
South Africa has had varied responses to Elaine‘s business venture, with some questioning why she’s selling flowers online instead of reaching the same level of success as Tyla.
Elaine, also known as Ndivhuwo Elaine Mukheli, initially gained acclaim for her powerful voice and exceptional songwriting skills, particularly with hits like “You’re The One” and “Risky,” which propelled her to the top of music charts. South Africans expected her to become a major music sensation.
However, Elaine’s career has noticeably slowed, and comparisons to Tyla, a local-born international star, are surfacing. Some even suggest that Elaine is facing problems after sharing her new venture in floral arrangements.
Upon entering the South African music scene, many predicted Elaine would become one of the country’s leading musicians. Also, her song “You’re The One” topped the charts for weeks, and her unique sound garnered widespread admiration.
At just 21, she achieved the title of Apple’s most-streamed female artist in 2020 and was crowned Top Mzansi Female Album of 2020 on the streaming service. Expectations were high for her continued success.
Contrary to expectations, Elaine is reportedly selling rose bouquets to make a living with her not-yet-started venture, Lainey’s Flowers. A disappointed fan shared her floral creation on X’s platform, questioning the shift from music to flowers.
In response, comments expressed sadness and concern for the singer, with some urging her to return to the studio. The sentiment among fans is that Elaine may be facing a challenging period in her career.
