He is fun, bubbly, and fans have fallen in love with his dance moves on TikTok and Instagram.
He’s also gained popularity due to his role as high school dropout Teddy on the Mzansi Magic drama series, Gomora.
Actor, dancer and Tik-Tok sensation Sicelo “Seekay” Buthelezi (23) now wants to introduce fans to his musical talent.
He recently released his single, Harare, with producer and composer Tony Duardo, inspired by Amapiano, Afrobeats, and Chimurenga music from Zimbabwe.
Although he loves acting, he wants his fans to see a different side to the high school dropout on Gomora.
“There is so much more to me. I am versatile and I would love for people to see the other side of me that is musical,” he tells Drum. Putting together the song Harare came naturally for Seekay.
“I had just met Tony Duardo through TK Nciza and Afrobeats artist Ciza. It’s not a song I sat down and planned, we were in a session and vibing and the song made me think of places I have never been to but would love to go to. I have never travelled outside of South Africa, but I imagined what a night in Harare would be like, as a type of escape,” he adds.
If he had to choose between acting and music, it would be a struggle. This year, he plans to release a full project with some features. “The full project was supposed to be out in June, but great work takes time,” he jokes.
“I want the kind of project that speaks to Africa and Europe, something international,” he says. “I want to work with different types of people. I don’t want to box myself. I want my music to live even after I am gone. I am not about instant gratification.”
Seekay started making music before he got into acting. “I have always loved to dance. Everyone knew me as someone who enjoyed dancing,“ he says.
“Acting just put me on the map and [gave me] a bigger platform and it opened doors for me.” He had his first acting experience in high school and that is when the acting bug bit him.
“I had my first acting role in a play at 14 years old playing a gardener in a school play and I fell in love with performing. I would do a lot of research and watch comedy shows. I would then mimic those and do my own comedy skits.”
After high school, he knew he wanted to be in the performing arts and he joined the Market theatre and did a two-year course. “I went to the Market Theatre and trained in Theatre Partitioning for two years and I graduated in 2019,” he says.
“I was never much of the directing or theory guy but I enjoyed being on the stage and performance, doing standup and performance.” - News24
