Vusi Mahlasela

Vusi Mahlasela was born in Lady Selbourne, Pretoria in 1965 and grew up in Mamelodi, a township famed as a cradle of culture which has produced many of Black South Africa’’s greatest musicians and writers. Vusi can’t remember a time when he wasn’t singing as a child. "I’m sure I learned to sing before I could talk" he says.
