Njenge Pirates ne Chiefs
Thina bes’zondana kangakaya

Isandla sam, sekhe was’bamba
Ndawin’ iSAMA wand’bamba isandla
Wagqib’ o’perform-a, ndak’bamba isandlaAkunandaba sidlulile pha.

AKA’s Tragic Death in Durban
The untimely demise of the iconic hip hop artist and performer, AKA, shocked and devastated fans across the nation. Kiernan Jarryd Forbes, better known as AKA, was tragically shot dead outside a restaurant in Durban on February 10th, 2023. Accompanied by his friend Tebello “Tibz” Motsoane, AKA was walking towards their cars when they were approached by two armed men who fired at close range. This heinous act claimed the life of the talented artist, who was only 35 years old at the time of his death. Although five months have passed since the incident, the motive behind this devastating loss is still under investigation.
The History of iFani and AKA’s Beef
iFani and AKA’s rivalry began in 2014 when AKA accused the Ewe artist of selling his album to the alcohol brand Redds.

He states, “AKA even accused Redds of buying my album, but that’s simply not true!” iFani clarifies the misconception and sets the record straight, shedding light on the truth behind their public feud.
