Apart from acting, Dr Mbali as she is popularly known is also a singer. At just eight years of age, the songstress discovers her singing talent. With the help of her older sister, she perfects her vocals.

“She would make me reach those high notes, she was an amazing singer. We took the talent from my mother’s side because everyone can sing there. When my sister passed away I thought I would never want to sing again because I thought I would die too,” says Nelisiwe.

Getting over her loss, she finally joins the high school choir.

“A choir is eventually started because of me at my school. I get choral and classical training and then I join a production after school that leads me to really know that music was my calling. If not that then I was going to be a scriptwriter.”
