Bongekile Simelane (born July 26, 1994) professionally and popularly known as Babes Wodumo is a South African Kwaito artist, model and dancer who is known for her hit song “Wololo”.

Babes Wodumo quickly became notorious in the testosterone-heavy world of gqom with her blend of imaginative moves and banging beats. Hit singles like “Wololo” introduced her fresh angle to the Durban scene and filled dance floors with sharp percussion, minimalist house beats and Wodumo’s mesmerising vocals. She sticks closely to this sonic blueprint on her debut, Gqom Queen, which brims with infectious, sweat-drenched club anthems—and confirms that Wodumo is primed to claim her crown as a ruling force in the sound.

Babes Wodumo has a song Redemption with Zacari, appearing on the Black Panther Soundtrack.
