Yanga Ntshakaza is a South African recording artist popularly known as Yanga Chief. He was born October 1987 in Mthatha, Eastern Cape and grew up in Queenstown.

Yanga closed off 2014 by releasing the ‘2015 Freestyle’ which caused a rapture on social media and got Yanga acknowledgement by local rap stars and media personalities as being a refreshing voice in the hip hop industry.
