The Mzansi Youth Choir has just released their latest song, a cover of AGT star Nightbirde’s It’s Ok, a fitting tribute in the month of October to those battling cancer, and those who have lost loved ones in the fight against the disease.
Nightbirde, the singer and songwriter whose real name is Jane Marczewski, ignited the stage with her captivating voice in America’s Got Talent's this year with Simon Cowell awarding her a golden buzzer for her performance of her original song. The song went on to reach No. 1 on iTunes and No. 2 on YouTube’s trending list and her performance has gone down as one of the most emotional in the history of the show.
Diagnosed with cancer after having been in remission, she withdrew from the competition after the auditions saying that she needed to focus her energy on her battle with cancer.
Take a listen to the Mzansi Youth Choir tribute right here. The choir, made up of 50 choristers between the ages of 13 to 24 ,all from disadvantaged backgrounds, said on Twitter that they were "inspired by her incredible determination & positive view on life!”
Nightbirde continues to fight the good fight.
