Introducing our ninth of fourteen artists, PZY
Born Mbono "John-Paul" Mkhize, P.Z.Y. grew up in the township of Kwadengezi, KwaZulu-Natal South Africa. His parents, Thulani(John) & Sibusisiwe(Jackie), along with 3 older siblings moved to Oklahoma to be free from the grasp and social restraints of the Apartheid riddled place they called home. His father, also known as "John Mkhize", caught Scholastic and media attention with his efforts in mediation in the township of Shongweni, during the Apartheid era in South Africa. Upon being awarded the Martin Luther King Jr. Peace Award by Coretta Scott King in Atlanta, on his arrival home he decided to bring his family back to the States. Moving to a basically whole new world at the age of 11, P.Z.Y. cultivated friendships at a quick rate due to how outspoken and approachable he was, and that garnered him the chance to adapt in his new opportunity filled environment.
