Thuthuka Zindlovu, was born and bred in Lamontville, a small township on the South Coast of Durban, which is synonymous for fostering surfers and life guards. Passionate and a young supernova, Dlala Thukzin started pursuing his love for music at a young age, which was a result of hanging around his uncle who was a DJ.
He was 12 years old when he started DJing at local Durban clubs such as Havana Music Café and Joe Cools. It was there that he met people whose passions aligned with his and they started pioneering the sound we all know as Gqom. The firm grounding Gqom allowed him to continue to hone in his sound which led to him producing and playing a hybrid mixture of Afro Tech and Gqom. 
His music breakthrough was when he received a call from West Ink Records, requesting his expertise to co-produce Babes Wodumo’s first studio album which was a resounding success. in 2020 Thukzin released his First Label EP "Permanent Music" which featured DJ Tira, Joocy, GoldMax (Distruction Boyz), the EP was well received and received over 2 Million streams receiving a Gold plaque.
2021 - Thukzin release a number of projects which all of them went Gold and worked with Amapiano hardcores, Sir Trill, Mpura, Moscow, ThakzinDj with their smash hit " Yini sdakwa" released by Universal music / Def Jam Africa, he then signed a deal with Def Jam in 2021.
During more recent years he formed his own label Dlala Records which has seen him partnering with both South African and international labels. Having grown his name to one of the most recognisable names in the South African music scenes he is now planning to continue to make inroads into the international music sphere by completing more shows and collaborations.
