#HONORX9cOpenVerseChallenge Winner Takes the Spotlight
Mzansi brought the heat, but one verse stood above the rest! After weeks of fiery TikTok submissions, Thaphelo Khoza has just been revealed as the #HONORX9cOpenVerseChallenge Winner, taking the R20,000, the must-have, new HONOR X9c AI smartphone and a studio session with DJ Maphorisa and DJ Tira.
Thapelo, who resides in Krugersdorp couldn’t contain his excitement. “I feel so blessed to be the HONOR Open Verse challenge winner; I still can’t believe my eyes. I’m filled with so much joy in my heart and also excited about this whole thing. I would also like to thank HONOR South Africa for the opportunity they have given me.”
He’s seen it all, but DJ Maphorisa was blown away by the entries received. “The creativity in SA is unmatched and on point. Thapelo resident delivered something fresh, capturing the energy of both the challenge and the HONOR X9c. We’re looking forward to releasing the track and sharing that unbreakable spirit Honor is aiming to inspire.”
Built for Creators, Made for the Spotlight
Beyond the music, the HONOR X9c is making its mark in a big way – indestructible, powerful – an instant hit with creatives, content-makers and artists – on the move. Mzansi’s biggest names, from Themba Zwane to Gaisang Noge, have already put the device’s game-changing ability to handle drops and spills to the test and it proved it’s ready for any hustle.
Thapelo, also known as @soultaker_sa on TikTok, will be stepping into the studio with the kings of the decks any minute now, so expect a beat to drop soon. Watch his winning verse here.
