Bio

Angela Sibongile Makeba, better known as Bongi Makeba, was a South African singer and songwriter and the only child of the renowned singer and activist Miriam Makeba. As a teenager, Bongi started to sing and learned to play the guitar. In the early 1970s, Bongi embarked on her own musical career and released her debut album, "Blow on Wind," in 1980. The album was critically and commercially successful. Following this feat, she embarked on tours while also collaborating with her mother. Tragically, Bongi's promising career was cut short when she passed away in 1985. She is remembered for her beautiful voice and her commitment to social justice.
