Arthur Mafokate, No. 1

An early pioneer of the Kwaito sound, this year marks the 59th birthday of the famous musician. He will be 60 years old the following year.

Spiriki Mandla, Number 2 (53)

 

 

 

Mandla, like Arthur, is a Kwaito tale. Trompies and the Star, a 53-year-old musician, is a well-known member of the Kwaito crew. He entered the world on September 11, 1967.

Third, Sjava has arrived (36)

On December 2, 1982, Sjava was born as Jabulani Hadebe. He doesn’t feel his age, yet he looks much older than he is. He’s a “Taxi driver,” so maybe that’s why. To each his own, I suppose.

No. 4: Loyiso Bala

Loyiso is a popular R&B singer in South Africa who has also dabbled in Gospel.

The musician is in his 40s but could pass for much younger.

Particularly notable were the males included here. The upcoming installment will focus on well-known women in history.
