‘MUVHANGO’ ACTOR PERFORMS SONG
The Muvhango actor Dingaan Khumalo revealed to Sowetan in 2021 that he wanted to venture into amapiano to loosen up.
“For all my life, I have been this serious and tough guy. I felt it was time to do something different, something out of character that SA will enjoy. I know people are going to judge me because they do not expect me to be doing amapiano,” he said.
The 46-year-old actor also said he discovered his love for music at a young age and his family was in the choir.
The former Generations actor teamed up with Promise Sihle Tshabalala aka Bhubesi for his amapiano track.
“I decided to work with him because he is passionate. I have noticed that he loves music and have seen that when we work together for Moja Love. These songs started with a freestyling while working together.”
He said the idea for the song came while he was in a business meeting. His track at the time was titled Gabadiya.
