BM Mdletshe’s fascinating history begins with the growth of his ancestor, Ngomane in the eMdletsheni tribe, under the great Mthethwa dynasty and continued with the honour he had of taking care of Nandi and young Shaka of Senzangakhona in 1787. More than 200 years later, BM Mdletshe was born in KwaCeza (in 1955), and in 2001, he was officially appointed as King Goodwill Zwelithini’s praise singer.

From generation to generation, son to son, this oral history was passed on from Ngomane to Mfusi Mdletshe (his son), to Msushwana Mdletshe (his son), to Calenkomo Mavukefile Mdletshe (his son), to Kudlakudelwa Sombila Mdletshe (his son), and finally to Buzetsheni Mkhohlliseni (BM) Mdletshe (his son) who continues to serve the Zulu Kingdom to this day.

His strong interest in the history of the Zulu nation and culture is the one that passionately led him to become a cultural expert and discover his praise singing talent. Mdletshe has received numerous awards for his tremendous praise songs and rich Zulu cultural knowledge which position him as one of the finest cultural experts in KwaZulu-Natal.
