Nathan Dambuza Mdledle aktör

Nathan Dambuzza Mdledle or Nathan Mdledle played a major role in the evolution of South Africas music. As the leader of the Manhattan Brothers, Mdledle dominated South Africas music charts of the late 40s and 50s. Together with the group, he appeared regularly on South African television. In 1958, he appeared in Todd Matshikizas musical, King Kong, in the leading role of the black African boxer Ezekiel King Kong Dlemani. The show, which also featured the other members of The Manhattan Brothers, successfully toured South Africa and was staged in London in 1961. A change in the South African governments approach to apartheid while he was in England prevented Mdledle from returning to his homeland. He continued to perform with The Manhattan Brothers until his death on May 17, 1995.
