According to reports, the Amapiano singer was performing at the Ultra Music Festival on Saturday, March 12, 2023 when this sad incident happened.

Although, there is yet to be released an official statement on the death by his family or management, the music community has been thrown into mourning. DJ Neptune, Phil Mphela, and a host of others have put out their condolences on the artist’s death on the internet.

The ace singer and dancer was born in Nelspruit, Mpumalanga, in 1995 and is known for several hits such as ‘Big Flexa Nkalakatha’ and ‘Activate.’

This unfortunate news comes a few weeks after South African ace rapper AKA was shot dead in South Africa.
