- The Mahotella Queens is a South African female band formed in 1964 by music producer Rupert Bopape, consisting of Hilda Tloubatla, Nobesuthu Mbadu, and Amanda Nkosi. The group is noted for their distinct vocal harmony sound, guitar-led mbaqanga music, and fast stage dancing. Bopape was a talent scout and producer at the independent Gallo Africa's subsidiary dedicated to black music, Mavuthela Music Company. He formed the Mahotella Queens as the company's resident girl group and the ensemble, often led by the deep-voiced male vocals of Simon 'Mahlathini' Nkabinde, went on to have many hit records during the 1960s. The Queens line-up during this period usually comprised Hilda Tloubatla, , , Nobesuthu Mbadu and Mildred Mangxola. The Queens and Mahlathini were backed by Mavuthela's house band, the Band (including Marks Mankwane on lead guitar and West Nkosi on alto saxophone). In 1972 the line-up of the Mahotella Queens disintegrated after royalty disagreements with Bopape; Mahlathini left the company in a similar dispute with the producer. However, with a change of membership, the Queens remained productive and popular into the 1970s and 1980s. In 1987, following the explosion of interest in South African music, the Queens line-up was rejigged and three of its original singers – Hilda Tloubatla, Nobesuthu Mbadu and Mildred Mangxola – returned to the group. In combination with Mahlathini, the group forged a successful international touring career that lasts to this day. In spite of the deaths of Mahlathini, Marks Mankwane and West Nkosi during the late 1990s, the Mahotella Queens continue to perform and record in the 21st century. In 2013, long-serving member Mildred Mangxola retired from the group. She was replaced by a new recruit, Amanda Nkosi. Nobesuthu Mbadu died in 2021. (en)

À l'origine, c’est un groupe d'enregistrement en studio mixte, puis il devient un groupe féminin dont la composition évolue et comprend, dans les années 2010, Hilda Tloubatla, Nobesuthu Mbadu et Amanda Nkosi. Ce groupe se distingue pendant plusieurs décennies par son harmonie vocale, sa musique mbaqanga et ses danses sur scène. (fr)

- Mahotella Queens är en vokalgrupp från Johannesburg i Sydafrika med enbart kvinnliga medlemmar. Gruppen bildades 1964 av musikproducenten Rupert Bopape som såg potentialen i ett band med kvinnor och stark stämsång. Mahotella Queens spelade in hundratals skivor på 1960-talet varav många hitlåtar men den internationella karriären tog inte fart förrän senare. Från början bestod gruppen av fem sångerskor ledda av Hilda Tloubatla. De tog några sabbatsår på 1970-talet för att ägna sig åt sina familjer och när de återuppstod 1984 hade gruppen reducerats till tre. Mahotella Queens har bytt medlemmar vid flera tillfällen sedan dess, men Hilda Tloubatla är fortfarande kvar. Mahotella Queens gjorde med sitt kompband den urbana musiken mbaqanga känd i hela världen. Med en speciell blandning av traditionell sydafrikansk musik, jazz och rytmisk gitarr skapade de sydafrikansk musikhistoria. De turnerade i Sydafrika under apartheidtiden och från slutet av 1980-talet även i Europa och USA. År 2000 utsågs gruppen till World Music Artist of the Year på WOMEX i Berlin. Mahotella Queens sjöng på Urkultfestivalen i Näsåker 2019. (sv)
