Born Lungelo N Vilakati, LeVae is a super talented South African Music Producer/Artist/Songwriter & DJ born in the capital of Swaziland, Mbabane.

His main focus was production until he finally embraced stepping in-front of the microphone and is taking the country by storm one gig at a time. With a Facebook following 3000-strong and counting, the world is watching.
