He used to be a mentor for so many people, on and off stage, which is something that he sincerely caught with many of his fans. He was and still is a mentor and concept for many people and a wonderful person. Aspiring actors usually looked up to him. There are very few humans coming from that facet of the world that enter the arts, that make it big. And he was once a huge notion for many humans coming from Mbombela, Nelspruit.
Shabangu will forever be remembered for his fierce, resilient spirit and willpower to succeed. From a young age and background like that to where he had come, his persistence speaks for itself. He was once just an actual human; now, not a single character he has worked with has anything awful to say about him. When Mncedisi’s title got up, people’s faces lit up – he had that effect on people.
In his long career, Shabangu worked with pinnacle administrators like Lara Foot, James Ngcobo, Paul Grootboom, Malcolm Purkey, and Aubrey Sekhabi.
