Nelisiwe Faith Sibiya, who is better known as Mbali Mthethwa from Durban, was born on September 13, 1992. She comes from South Africa, where she sings and acts. She is well known for her TV role as Durban Gen. She put out the song “Mama ka Bafana,” which was influenced by African music.
Personal life
Sibiya was born in Johannesburg and spent her childhood with her mother and sister. Her father was shot and killed in front of her when she was eight years old. Her sister and she fled the home where they had been living with an uncle and an aunt after being sexually assaulted. In January 2015, she enrolled at Tshwane University of Technology to study Musical Studies. She was later awarded a bursary for the final two years of her studies. Her mother died in 2016, just before her graduation.
Career
Her mother comes from a musical family. Nelisiwe started singing with the help of her sister. Following the death of her sister, she joined her high school choir. During her time with the choir, she received instruction in both choral and classical singing. Her first significant playback performance was the “Mama Ka Bafana” theme song for the prison television series Lockdown in 2018. Then, in 2020, she was offered the role of “Dr. Mbali Mthethwa,” the main character in the medical drama telenovela Durban Gen. She was named Best Actress in Africa at the Zikomo Awards in 2021 for her performance.
Net Worth
Despite the fact that her singing career is coming to an end, the actress has found a new niche. She is well-paid and has a good acting role on Durban Gen. Her net worth is estimated to be R 5.7 million as a result of song sales and acting roles.
TV Shows
The actress makes a cameo appearance on Lockdown after singing her heartfelt hit song for the show. “I needed to go back to Johannesburg to record a song for the show, but I wasn’t in the mood.” My mind began to open as I considered how my mother would have wanted me to.
Things began to fall apart as she continued in her singing career, and her contract was about to expire. As her world implodes around her, she went for an audition for a job on Durban Gen, and the rest is history.
Abuse
The actress’s mother could not afford to send her to university due to financial constraints. To save money, the singer worked hard at her singing performances while sharing a hut with her mother. But how did they end up in a shack?
