Lizzy B Rising Female Vocalist

Lizzy B, a teacher by day and singer in her free time, is an upcoming South African Female Vocalist and MC.

Lizzy B, her real name being Elizabeth Anne Uys, supports herself by working as a teacher at Angel Downs with children ages 1 to 5, but her true passion is singing. 

She performed an A Capella version of Adele’s “One and Only” on air, which was simply incredible. With no need for background music, she had perfect pitch. Singing with emotion and confidence, Lizzy B showcased for us her lovely and pure voice.

She said she considers hip hop her biggest musical influence, especially Eminem’s “Just the Way You Lie.” “He rap my life,” Lizzy B said. “He tells my story.” She began her journey with music when she was young, and in high school, she was able to perform solo shows. When we asked her about her rehearsal schedule, we were surprised by her response. “I don’t get why people rehearse. I don’t get nervous,” she said. 

Lizzy B is the oldest child in a family that she says has supported her music career. She grew up around Elsies River. Even though there is a gangster presence in the area, Lizzy B said she could alway forgot about the outside world while she was making and listening to music. “It’s like therapy,” she said. 

Her singles include “Broken Vows,” “No Peace,” and “Love for a Long Time.”
