Matthew Mole Sings 'De La Rey' - An MBD EXCLUSIVE!
Updated | By Michael Savage
Bok Van Blerk plays the lead male role in the upcoming movie 'Leading Lady' from Dark Matters Studios, while Matthew Mole's music is prevalent throughout this SA RomCom that is set to light up big screens around SA from 28 November 2014.
Martin Bester Drive invited the two SA stars to join us in studio to chat about the movie, and had a little challenge for Matthew Mole, who is as he admits - VERY english.
MBD asked Matthew to do his own rendition of one of Bok's most famous Afrikaans songs - "De La Rey".
Watch this short behind the scenes video and see how Matthew Mole did!
The English vs Afrikaans challenge matches perfectly with what Leading Lady is all about - crossing social divides between English and Afrikaans, and breaking down historical and traditional barriers.
