Sam Tshabalala is a South African singer, songwriter, and guitarist known for his unique blend of traditional Zulu music with Western folk and pop influences. Born in the rural village of KwaMashu, Tshabalala began playing music at a young age, inspired by the sounds of his homeland. He rose to prominence in the 1960s as a member of the legendary group The Boyoyo Boys, whose politically charged songs became anthems of the anti-apartheid movement.
