A new generation carrying the torch

Ciza, born Nkululeko Nciza, is no stranger to the spotlight. As the son of Mafu, one half of the legendary Afro-pop duo Mafikizolo, and music executive TK Nciza, Ciza has grown up surrounded by rhythm, stage lights, and hit songs. Rather than simply riding on his parents’ fame, he has carved out his own lane with a unique sound that blends Afro-fusion, R&B, and amapiano influences.

Nhlanhla Mafu ventures into deejaying

Perhaps influenced by his son, the Mafikizolo singer reportedly found a new passion in the craft. Briefly News reported that the veteran singer recently traded her mic for the decks.

At the time of her announcing the new passion, Mafu said she had been playing for friends and family at their private gatherings. She said at the time that it was time she shared her passion with Mzansi.
