Ntsiki Mazwai is a famous poet and recording artist from the Rainbow nation. Commonly known as “Street Queen”, she is a well-celebrated part of the South African music scene. She uses her massive social media presence to address ghetto problems and has been known to be the voice of oppressed people.
Ntsiki Mazwai, age 41 was born on 3rd September 1980 in Pimville, Soweto. She is the daughter of two of the most renowned writers of the South African history of revolution. Belede Mazwai, her mother, was a military journalist who made game-changing contributions to the newsprint industry. On the other hand, Dr Thami, Ntsiki Mazwai’s father, was the editor of the Sowetan.
Ntsiki Mazwai’s family also consists of her two sisters, Thandiswa and Nomsa Mazwai. Thandiswa Mazwai, Ntsiki Mazwai’s elder sister, was born in 1976 and is a professional musician who is also the lead vocalist and songwriter of Bongo Maffin, an award-winning Johannesburg music group created in 1996. Ntsiki Mazwai and her sister Thandiswa have always had each other’s back. They’ve demonstrated this when either one of them has had to face public criticism.
However, things are quite tense with her younger sister Nomsa Mazwai. Nomsa, like her, is a talented and well-respected singer and composer in South Africa who is known for her work with the Alternative and Indie genres. This may be the cause of the excessive sibling rivalry that we have seen between Nomsa and Ntsiki Mazwai.
The sibling rivalry runs deeper than most expect. There have been physical fights between the two. Nomsa said Ntsiki Mazwai, who went to the same school as her, was a protective big sister. However, she also acted as her principal and would keep watch on every move that Nomsa made. According to Nomsa, her sister Ntsiki Mazwai was a tattletale, and nothing got past her.
Ntsiki Mazwai completed her primary and secondary education in Soweto, South Africa. On completing her school years, she chose to study at Institute of Marketing Management (IMM) and secured a Diploma in Marketing.
