Bongi Archi bursts onto the original music scene with his powerful debut single ‘Excuse Me’.
While Bongi Archi might be a new name for people to pay attention to, he’s instantly recognisable under his birth name Bongi Mthombeni from the many stages he’s graced over the past decade since he burst onto the entertainment scene as a popular member of Idols SA Top 8 in 2010.
He hasn’t stopped working since and is just as comfortable on grand theatre stages, as a special guest artist on Disney Cruiselines that took him around the world, to back on the TV screen in Ons Soek Die Sanger (Top 5); from Joyous Celebration to countless corporate events, Bongi has proven time and again his versatility and popularity with audiences brought about by his vibrant and charming stage presence second to none.
Throughout this time, Bongi has been honing and fine-tuning his song-writing skills and now he gives his fans what they’ve been asking for – original music!
Along with brand new branding, a stage-name change to Bongi Archi to reflect this exciting next step, Excuse Me is only the beginning of this exhilarating journey. It’s the first single of many.
Style and flair has always been important to Bongi and it was important that his ‘look’ going forward reflects that as well as his enticing stage personality. Music and fashion go hand in hand. Both are unique art forms that showcase feelings, passion and emotion.
