The singer and producer succumbed to stage 4 pancreatic cancer. He died on Christmas day after battling the illness for six months. He had also suffered from anaemia.

“The sickness actually paralysed him because he couldn’t walk anymore and move anymore. During the last days he couldn’t even speak clearly anymore,” said Bheki Malinga, family spokesperson and brother of the late star at the time of his death.

His wife said though she would never spend time with him, today was filled with memories of happiness and tears of sadness.
