Lekompo star announces major career shift
Lekompo sensation Janesh has officially confirmed that she will no longer accept joint performance bookings with fellow artist Abi wa Mampela, marking a significant new chapter in her rapidly growing career.
The announcement was made through a statement issued by her management on 27 June 2026, confirming that, effective immediately, both artists will perform exclusively as solo acts.
Decision driven by artistic evolution
According to the statement, the move reflects the natural progression of both artists’ careers rather than a falling out.
Janesh explained that while the pair’s joint performances were built around their earlier music projects, both artists have since developed successful individual careers with distinct musical identities.
“As artists, we have evolved,” the statement reads, adding that the decision ensures fans can continue enjoying performances that are aligned with each artist’s solo catalogue.
Not the end of their musical partnership
Despite ending joint bookings, Janesh reassured fans that the professional relationship between herself and Abi wa Mampela remains intact.
The statement confirms that the two will continue producing music together whenever the opportunity arises, emphasizing that collaboration remains an important part of their creative journey.
Rather than signalling a split, the announcement separates their live performance business from their musical collaborations.
Janesh continues her rise as one of Lekompo’s leading women
The announcement comes as Janesh continues establishing herself as one of the biggest female names in the Lekompo movement.
After first gaining national recognition through collaborations with Abi wa Mampela, Janesh has built an impressive solo catalogue that has attracted millions of streams and positioned her among the genre’s most influential artists.
Her growing demand as an individual performer has made a dedicated solo booking structure a logical next step in her career.
Solo booking details coming soon
Janesh thanked supporters for standing by her throughout every stage of her journey and expressed excitement about the future.
She also confirmed that her official solo booking details will be announced in due course, while Abi wa Mampela will independently release his own booking information.
A new era begins
For fans, the announcement doesn’t mark the end of the Janesh and Abi wa Mampela partnership—it simply marks the beginning of a new business model.
