\u2013 Spotify-style artist block for an Elementor \"HTML\" widget.\r\n  Paste everything in this file into the widget. No <html>\/<body> needed.\r\n\r\n  PLAYBACK: songs play inside the page through Spotify's Embed (iFrame) API.\r\n  Clicking a song loads it into the player and plays it; visitors stay on your site.\r\n  Visitors logged in to Spotify hear full songs; everyone else gets 30-sec previews.\r\n  If the Spotify API fails to load, song rows fall back to opening the song on Spotify.\r\n\r\n  TRACKING: everything is pushed to window.dataLayer for Google Tag Manager.\r\n  Every event carries: artist_name, album_name\r\n  Song events also carry: track_name, track_id, track_position\r\n\r\n    music_track_select  visitor picked a song           + source (\"track_list\" | \"play_button\")\r\n    music_play          playback started or resumed     + position_sec, preview_only (true = 30-sec preview)\r\n    music_pause         playback paused                 + position_sec\r\n    music_progress      reached 25 \/ 50 \/ 75 %          + percent\r\n    music_complete      reached 95 % of the song\r\n    spotify_click       outbound click to Spotify       + link_type (\"follow\" | \"track\" | \"play_all\"), link_url\r\n\r\n  In GTM: one Custom Event trigger with regex  ^(music_.*|spotify_click)$\r\n  plus Data Layer Variables for the fields above, then send to GA4 as events.\r\n  The GTM container snippet itself goes in your site header, not in this widget.\r\n-->\r\n<div id=\"eli-artist\">\r\n<style>\r\n#eli-artist{--bg:#121212;--card:#181818;--card-h:#282828;--txt:#fff;--sub:#b3b3b3;--green:#1DB954;--green-h:#1ed760;\r\n

Op die verhoog is hy Eli Botha, \u2018n naam wat hy gekies het sodat sy musiek nie met ander Afrikaanse kunstenaars verwar word nie.<\/p><p dir=\"ltr\">Musiek was nooit die plan nie. Op skool was rugby alles, so belangrik dat hy \u2018n tweede matriekjaar gedoen het net om nog \u2018n seisoen te speel. Toe breek hy sy sleutelbeen.<\/p><p dir=\"ltr\">Sonder rugby is hy, half teen sy sin, die kunste in gestoot. Die seun wat so skaam was dat hy skaars voor mense kon praat, moes leer om voor hulle te sing. Daardie selfde jaar, op \u2018n uitreik, ontmoet hy \u2018n oom wat kitaar speel met \u2018n hand wat nie behoorlik wou werk nie. Die oom het vir hom ges\u00ea: as hy eendag Australi\u00eb toe trek, kry Eli sy kitaar.<\/p><p dir=\"ltr\">Eli het sy tweede matriekjaar klaargemaak, en beter gevaar as die eerste keer. Daarna het hy \u2018n ambag geleer en sy rooi se\u00ebl verwerf, terwyl hy aangehou het met rugby, tot by die Pumas, waar hy begin het om \u2018n professionele loopbaan te bou. Toe breek hy weer sy sleutelbeen.<\/p><p dir=\"ltr\">Die aand toe hy van die hospitaal af by die huis kom, het die oom se kitaar by sy voordeur vir hom gewag.<\/p><p dir=\"ltr\">Hy het dit opgetel, en nooit weer neergesit nie.<\/p><p dir=\"ltr\">Wat gevolg het, was \u2018n Engelse album, [<em>naam van die Engelse album<\/em>], wat vandag nog gespeel word, en \u2018n tyd as voltydse aanbiddingsleier. Maar Eli het iets begin agterkom: die mense wat elke week daar gesit het, het die waarheid reeds gehoor. Hy wou dit gaan sing vir die mense wat nie daar was nie.<\/p><p dir=\"ltr\">So het hy sy musiek na die groter w\u00eareld gevat. Vroe\u00ebr in 2026 was hy een van tien finaliste in [<em>naam van die kompetisie<\/em>], en het hy saam met Rooksyn [<em>naam van die liedjie<\/em>] opgeneem vir hul album <em>Rooksyn en Vriende<\/em>.<\/p><p dir=\"ltr\">[<em>Naam van die Afrikaanse album<\/em>] is Afrikaanse liedjies, net \u2018n stem en \u2018n kitaar, oor liefde soos dit regtig lyk: onseker in \u201cHoe Sal Ek Weet\u201d, en vasberade in \u201cVir Altyd\u201d. Dis eerlike liedjies vir enigiemand wat al ooit liefgehad het.<\/p><p dir=\"ltr\">Eli is deel van Eli and Salim Records.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Visit: Salim Records Website Language: Afrikaans 0r English Eli Botha Luister Ware Liefde Form Book vir Shows Book vir Troues Facebook X-twitter Youtube Luister &#8211; Ware Liefde Wen Book vir Shows Book vir Troues Bio | Terug Bo Luister &#8211; Ware Liefde Wen Book vir Shows Book vir Troues Bio | Terug Bo Luister &#8211; [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"elementor_header_footer","meta":{"_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"","_seopress_robots_index":"","_seopress_robots_follow":"","_seopress_robots_imageindex":"","_seopress_robots_snippet":"","_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_robots_breadcrumbs":"","_seopress_robots_freeze_modified_date":"","_seopress_robots_custom_modified_date":"","_seopress_robots_canonical":"","_seopress_social_fb_title":"","_seopress_social_fb_desc":"","_seopress_social_fb_img":"","_seopress_social_fb_img_attachment_id":0,"_seopress_social_fb_img_width":0,"_seopress_social_fb_img_height":0,"_seopress_social_twitter_title":"","_seopress_social_twitter_desc":"","_seopress_social_twitter_img":"","_seopress_social_twitter_img_attachment_id":0,"_seopress_social_twitter_img_width":0,"_seopress_social_twitter_img_height":0,"_seopress_redirections_value":"","_seopress_redirections_enabled":"","_seopress_redirections_enabled_regex":"","_seopress_redirections_logged_status":"","_seopress_redirections_param":"","_seopress_redirections_type":0,"_seopress_analysis_target_kw":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-13","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/elibotha.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/13","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/elibotha.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/elibotha.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elibotha.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elibotha.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=13"}],"version-history":[{"count":163,"href":"https:\/\/elibotha.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/13\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":210,"href":"https:\/\/elibotha.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/13\/revisions\/210"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/elibotha.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=13"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
