Tributes continue to flow for kwaito star Thakolo “Magesha” Tshabalala, who died yesterday at the age of 45.
The family of the former member of the music group TKZee says he died after suffering an epileptic seizure.
The band TKZee is known for hits like ‘We love this place’ and ‘Phalafala’.
Solutions on Point marketing director Thabisa Tshabalala, who has also worked with the Kwaito legend, says he has contributed greatly to the music industry.
“Rest in peace to my elder brother Tokollo Magesh Tshabalala. Many thanks for all your efforts. Thank you so much for laying the foundation for us. Thank you for showing us the way. Thank you for giving us the best music. We hope your soul rests in peace and your legacy lives on forever,” adds Tshabalala.
