'I ditched my family because they didn't want me to do music. They wanted me to finish school. So I left and came to Joburg.'

Singer Lwah Ndlunkulu, who's the first lady ofreflected on her journey before she became a musician who's topping the charts today.“It was hard because when I came to Joburg I did not have a place to stay so I had to squat at the studio to record and make music until I found someone who gave me the opportunity. There were many challenges because of that but fast forward, things ended up good after I recorded uMuzi eSandton.

A chance meeting with Big Zulu is what set her career in motion because she was later signed by the musician. “So every time Big Zulu came he would find me there, until a song played of mine and he asked who was singing and he complimented my voice and said he would like to have an artist like me on his record label. We ended up recording.”Leaving her family back home in KwaZulu-Natal was not an easy thing for her. She shared with TshisaLIVE that she had to make a tough decision to realise her dream.

“Whether its good or bad. Whether it influences others in a good or bad way. I was told by something at the back of my head that I need to go and work on my goals, go and find what you want to do, its possible. I was driven by the passion that I had.”
