Johannesburg- In just two short months singer Nathi Mankayi is carving a name for himself in the music circles.
Nathi is such a smooth operator, he even had Bonang Matheba blushing when she interviewed him recently on Metro FM.
In fact, Bonang is such a big fan, she's been playing his single Buyel'ekhaya every day on her show.
Nathi, who spent four years behind bars for robbery, has definitely proven that turning a new leaf is possible.
"I didn't expect people to like my music the way they have. I'm really pleased though," Nathi told Sowetan.
Adding, "I talk about things that come from the heart and go straight to peoples' hearts, because they relate to it."
Nathi says that he still has a lot to learn about the industry and is hoping that the love doesn't end with this album.
Aww..see guys dreams do come true!
