It was the end of the road for Niikiey Kubheka, leaving Princess MacDonald, Nkosi King Teresa, Faith Nakana and Thabo Ndlovu to battle it out on stage.
Performing iconic hits from a playlist curated by special guest and multiple Grammy award-winner PJ Morton and serenading the audience with popular local love songs, each contender left a lasting impression on the judges and fans.
The international star took on the mentorship role, guiding Idols contestants towards their finale aspirations.
PJ Morton wowed the audience with a performance of his new single So Lonely, joined by rapper Maglero Doe Boy.
Setting the tone for the evening, the top 5 sang The Beatles’ classic Come Together.
This was followed by the top 4 delivering two awe-inspiring performances each, first from a playlist handpicked by PJ Morton and later their renditions of iconic love songs.
