He was born in Embizeni, Kwa-Maphumulo, near the Kwa-Zulu Natal town of KwaDukuza. He finished his secondary education at Velangezwi High School.

He started his music carrier in the early 2000s. Ngidi is one of the best young composers in this genre. He is able to tell a story through song and his music is packed with messages of love and stories about his upbringing. Zanefa released more than four albums from 2010. He released his first album in 2010 titled Umona. The project got him a nomination for Best Maskandi Album of the Year at the 2011 SA Traditional Music Awards (SATMA Awards).[2]

Neutrinos travel only very slightly slower than light, and can take a more direct path because they don't interact much with matter, while the fibre-optic lines for internet traffic only let light go at 0.6c or something, and use less direct paths, and have routing overhead.
