a real career horowitz. was no most bought the. whole week. then he knows every street and alley in durban he's been driving on them for 2 years now and when he drives he loves to sing often to the surprise of his passengers was all. they thought is that it's a radio old sun city hall and yes besides all that bad play i'm just i'm just going at that level and then the last. thing is that is that the reason you ever let your gets to me. since the video came out his phones hardly stopped to ringing with invitations to castings inquiries from sponsors and bookings for performances it's a. minute you know i'm going to sell i'm

a small things it's overwhelming i like it. in fact he had long been active in durban's music scene performing at concerts and taking part in competitions but it had never been more than a hobby. now every one of his rehearsals is live streamed menzi hopes to keep people talking about him. the. music teacher said bello makhanya has known n.z. since childhood but even before menzies big discovery they met several times a month to practice mentoring never formally studied voice. since he was young i could see that it's something special i'm so proud of war for his achievement it's the moment a. i don't even know it's full for $48.00 the m m m m m m so

peaceful and. it's amazing this is i've been planning for this for a long time and a scene and on stage is you know because the eve he does have a toilet. he's even received a call from a men's wear shop which lent him a tuxedo for his next performance. please . i really. like that. stress. sure it. looks like an opera singer a guy who's driving and he sings i'm a cook it is very interesting you know sir just through i was really excited to meet him and is even better now that i see him in person. the next day nancy takes

a plane from durban to cape town he's been invited to perform at the voices of south africa singing competition he's optimistic. it's a good life it's not a. politician. i'm so excited about this to the whole team just books pens are. still stuck in patents. even so menzi is seen as the underdog many of his competitors are professionals who've studied music formally for added motivation the prize money is 30000 round about 2000 euro's use yet. the son of home he even gives it one last run through in the dressing room was. an great relief. he sings an aria from the opera tamanna by gave her

peter chandel a form was the the. one thing for the. love of. god. was. home. the audience approved. was beautiful history for the so that it was. too full of his voice and we send it out of the door and each it will face was

amazing and wonderful and well executed as what i found means a performance of a bit improving his voice was amazing. time for the jury's decision to. release. these. there was. i. think that's the experience yeah yeah he wants us to take. it through and i will come to. a. back in durban a few weeks later. when she lives in this township with his partner and 2

children. they're going to get out of the city for a while and visit his parents in the country. my family's by the study from snowy it was the old limbo must be where you'll find that the whole family will come odds so cars so good subplots one person. means in one. leg competition solo that will come my dead it will take off. and that my mom was about then though they were just up. sold close to us a good thing. lulu on the in. the menzies parents are both talented singers they used

to sing in a choir and often used to sing at home as well. as the top of the dual use of the. on display in the living room or the trophies menzi won at regional singing contests. menzi has great ambitions in december he plans to fly to the united states for a casting he shows his mother his fundraising page by which he hopes to raise the money for the trip from people he's never personally met. opportunity for performer. this year although they are. down. to the last exam being stout. there's only one goal for me is to be an interest now performa. that's all and that's only my wish i just want to be an internet stop performer been reported as when i go to china i've been recognised when i go to

england are being recognised everywhere so that's my wish. that. menzies father is an out of work truck driver and his mother is a traditional healer he joined together to communicate with their ancestors let's do tradition and pray for menzies success. of a vehicle. and on. the part of the city in new york but the greater the pride the higher the expectations. one would tell you. i'm very excited and happy that my son may even be going abroad. but he mustn't forget his roots away he comes from coal. oh my course he's come to represent a family with the right i was. and he should think of us as parents

even if all goes well for him as mayor knight. jim didn't lock. up but in the meantime countless other videos have also gone viral on social media the big hype over menzi is dying down the last time that you can be found innocent of them i'll call myself a hustler i'm special so by that i just don't carry that and then have that evil but i because at the end of the day you saw on the 5 that i did and it's a i need to put bread on the table so i can say. and keep keep motivating myself with nonsense so i just need to i just need to wake up and what this is south africa that people with mosse those people will take but they don't wake. the. next rehearsal in durban together with the city's

modest circle of opera singers hardly any of them can manage to earn a living with their music the least. nancy's friends and colleagues are all rooting for him. i must say the cause. i'm on must say at the cost of an in-patient which is a could see. at the moment says menzies luck is on his side so he's got to use it while he can and hope for a turn on the big opera stage. on the. loading .
