Lebo M Compares Thandiswa Mazwai To Beyonce! It’s normally Ntsiki Mazwai hyping her sister on social media but this time it’s fellow artist Lebo M has come out insisting King Thandiswa is just as great as Beyonce and Celine Dion.
“I was at the 6664 concert in New York (in 2009) when Thandiswa Mazwai walked on stage for her set. I said to myself, ‘there is the real authentic Miriam Makeba.
“Where are the South African brands to give her the same support as Beyoncé and Celine Dion’ Because Thandiswa is on the same level, and has the same talent, as Beyoncé and Celine Dion,” Lebo M said.
Lebo M says South African artists needs to work with South African investors to help build their brand overseas.
“Black Coffee is an institution. Trevor Noah is iconic, bigger than anything else. But you don’t see global South African entities, businesses, doing endorsements and deals with Trevor, Lebo M or Black Coffee- artists that are global. That is the problem I have. South African brands need to get behind South African talent.”
