Updated | By ZAlebs
South Africa's top singing duo, Mafikizolo, will have their musical work featured at the Grammy museum.
A Sounds of Africa exhibit will be unveiled at the museum in Los Angeles on Friday, and Mafikizolo made the cut.
Black Entertainment Television (BET) has partnered with the museum to showcase some of the content's music talent.
The exhibit is a tribute to Africa's legends, as well as traditional and contemporary music.
It will feature artists who have been nominated for a Grammy and/or BET Awards.
Friday's exhibit, which will feature handwritten lyrics and rare instruments, among other things, is part of the build up to the 2016 BET Awards, taking place on Sunday.
Other artists included in the exhibit include Nigerian rapper Ice Prince, 2face Idibia, visual artist Laolu Sebanjo, and Angelique Kidjo, who picked up her third Grammy earlier this year.
Mafikizolo's Nhlanhla Nciza says she is "eternally humbled" by the honour.
"All we can do is praise His holy name, who ever thought our name will be mentioned alongside the Grammys . Eternally humbled," she said on Instagram.
Congrats, Mafikizolo! Keep flying the SA flag high.
