Lebo M - Coming Home
He’s the first voice you hear in The Lion King, a highlight of Hans Zimmer’s Oscar-winning soundtrack. He’s won a Grammy, been nominated for a Tony for his work on the highest-grossing Broadway production of all time, executive produced the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2010 FIFA World Cup, had his songs streamed over 250 million times on Spotify alone, and won the 2020 DStv Mzansi Viewer’s Choice 1Life Legend Award.
Now the circle of life has brought Soweto-born Lebo M back to South Africa. Watch his journey in Lebo M - Coming Home, the Showmax Original reality series.
While the 10-part show gives fans a front-row seat to his career as he creates new music, it also turns the spotlight onto his biggest dream: bringing his family together.
Lebo M has been married three times, helping to raise nine children along the way, one of whom tragically passed away. Now, he's settled in Blair Atholl with Angela Ngani-Casara, his third wife; his 90-something mother; and four of his children. Lebo M is also working on his relationship with his four eldest children, who are all still living in the USA, and Tshepiso, his only surviving son, who lives in Midrand and has just become a father himself.
“I was initially skeptical about a reality show,” says Lebo M. “But having recently learned no one really knows who I really am in South Africa, my beloved home country of birth, I’ve become romantic about opening up and having my fans and audience here hang out with Angela and my kids via this conversation in 10 episodes.”
