8 of the top 16 Idols SA finalists selected

The first eight contestants that’ll be in the season 17 Top 16 have been selected.

Sunday, 15 August saw the first of a two-part episode in which the judges concluded their job of choosing the first eight of the top 16 finalists.

Judges, Randall Abrahams, Unathi Nkayi and Somizi Mhlongo had to choose the eight singers from 30 hopefuls who sang solos to impress them.

Speaking about selecting the Top 16, Randall said it was difficult.

“The final audition was tough on the contestants and we had to eliminate some very good singers. Their only downfall was buckling under the pressure of the competition. Selecting the top 16 was a brutal affair, but we have selected an exceptional group of singers and they have set a very high standard for themselves,” he said.

Lucky number one to make it to the top 16 was 18-year-old Bulelani, who sang Mnqobi Yazo’s 247.

He was followed by 28-year-old Kevin.

Karabo, who is currently a fan favourite on social media also made it to the Top 16.

Misty who sang Black Coffee’s Ready For You also impressed the judges and made it through.

The 30-year-old Berry also made it, along with Monique, who celebrated her 21st birthday with a golden ticket and balloon drop.

Siya Motloung and Sia Mzizi, concluded the first eight finalists of the top 16.

Part two of the top 16 selection will continue next Sunday.
