The love and support from his family, friends, and community pushed him in the right direction as he pursued music as a career from an early age.<\/p>\n The sensational South African Afro-pop music duo, Blaq Diamond, is made up of Ndumiso Mdletshe and Sphelele Dunywa. They attended the same high school. The two became friends during a rap challenge on a school bus while on a road trip in 2010.
