A Rising Star Faces Controversy
Naledi Aphiwe, the South African singer discovered by Chris Brown in 2023, has once again captured the spotlight with her latest music video, Romeo and Juliet. Released on February 13, 2025, the video has drawn significant attention for its modern take on the classic love story.
