Bongeziwe Mabandla, South African star in the making by DredieMann
He is an award winning singer-songwriter and musician known for his unique style, fusing traditional Xhosa folk music with modern influences such as R&B, soul and electronic production.
Mabandla’s new album” amaXesha” will be released Spring 2023. The first single to be released from the album is ‘Noba Bangathini’. He enthused: “For me, this song is about surviving and overcoming situations with someone else,” says Mabandla of his new release. In creating the music for this central story of two people colliding and fusing into one, Producer Correia-Paulo set about recording multiple objects hitting each other – a piece of wood falling, the opening of a coconut with a machete, a steel plank being dropped, a glass bottle being thrown against the wall – to form the basis of the song’s production. “we wanted ‘Noba Bangathini’ to be the song that allowed his audience to experience Bongeziwe coming from a very different place.
