Cape Town – South African tv personality Katlego Maboe is well known for his presenting skills, but his ability to sing was demonstrated when he performed a duet with British singer and songwriter, Craig David on an episode of Expresso.
For Katlego, it was an experience of a lifetime. According to him, it was like a boy meeting his hero.
“When I was a teenager, my grandparents bought me an alarm-radio that led me to this song by @craigdavid and @theofficialsting – it was a defining moment of my youth. Yesterday that teenage boy met his hero,” Katlego wrote on Instagram.
The presenter’s performance in the duet was exceptional, showing off his ability to perform riffs and runs and at one point even harmonising.
The renowned British singer was visibly impressed by Katlego’s abilities as a vocalist.
“My guy!” Craig exclaimed.
“Your tone is so so smooth brother. No seriously, I just love it,” the singer said.
