Busi Mhlongo Essentials

Busi Mhlongo Essentials

A national award winner who reached international audiences, Busisiwe Mhlongo held her own on stages with Miriam Makeba and Hugh Masekela. With a voice that soared over a 50-year career, this multi-talented pioneer fused maskanda, mbaqanga and marabi with jazz, funk and gospel. She found success in Portugal, London, the Netherlands between the '60s and the '80s, and back home when she returned from exile in the ‘90s. Until she passed away in 2010, she kept audiences spellbound with her flawless falsetto and regal presence. Listen to the sounds of a legend.
