Phila Dlozi
Born Siyabonga Mfekayi on the 19th of July 1998, Phila Dlozi is a vibrant and extremely gifted, Johannesburg based, Afro Jazz/Soul singer hailing from a small village called kwaSokhulu near Richards Bay, KwaZulu-Natal. His love for singing blossomed at a young age when his mother discovered that he had a powerful yet soothing voice. His love for music was born out of the serenading voices from his hometown. He would leave home at the age of 17 to pursue his dream in the City of Durban where he began street busking to provide for himself. With his music, Phila Dlozi delicately addresses the whole spectrum of life, from happy unions to depressions including heartbreaks and everything in between. He believes he is a messenger who was given this gift to help people on this journey called life. It’s a sweet and sour affair that aims at celebrating the good times and comforting during times of hardships. His main musical influences are the late greats Busi Mhlongo and Oliver Mtukudzi. Phila Dlozi believes music is the greatest heritage one can leave for future generations to come. He is a very spiritual young man who seeks to share the wisdom of his ancestors and culture, through his music, with the world.
