    Dadaboy Ehiz from Apple Music pays a special tribute to AKA, a well-known South African rapper and producer who tragically passed away on February 10, 2023.

    Several of AKA’s most frequent collaborators, including Musa Keys, K.O., and Nasty C, reflect on his influence on hip-hop in South Africa and throughout the continent as a way to honour his life and legacy.

    Speaking about the late rapper, Nasty C whom he recently featured on the single ‘Lemonade’ tells Apple Music:

    “AKA’s impact on South African hip-hop was like no other. He’s one of the guys that commercialised rapping in English. He paved the way for people like me here in South Africa as far as hip-hop goes. He’d always been a big brother to me; he’d just always been caring; he always gave me tips and advice on how to elevate my game. He will live forever in my heart.”

    AKA’s longtime collaborator K.O praised him for having the passion and desire that took him outside the Hip Hop scene.

    “AKA is one of the people that really took showmanship to the next level. When you listen to his catalogue, and [consider] how he created his music, he created it for big stages. He was the first person to actually fully immerse himself into being a ‘pop’ act. Yes, he was an MC, but you know, he wanted to be a ‘pop’ artist and you can hear it in the music, the texture, the tone, and the energy, and I think he successfully executed that.”

    On his birthday, AKA, also known as Supamega, was shot and murdered in front of a restaurant in Florida, Durban, along with his buddy and manager Tibz. Fans and coworkers throughout the continent were shocked to hear of his demise.

    He was buried on Friday, 18th February 2023 in a memorial and private ceremony in Sandston South Africa.

    Before his passing, AKA was planning to release a new album called “Mass Country,” which will now be released posthumously on Friday, February 24, 2023.
