The Tembisa born-singer and songwriter who was raised in Mamelodi, Pretoria has quickly become one of the best of SA’s sensational artists. Every song she writes and performs captivates the audience in ways one can’t explain.

On the 21st of June 2019 Lady Zamar released one of the biggest albums titled Monarch. It boasts singles like ‘This Is Love’ and many more great music. Time and time again Lady Zamar’s skin condition called acne makes the news with social media talking ill about it. But she never lets it bring her down. A very courageous and strong willed individual. You’re beautiful and we love you Lady Zamar.
