by Limpho Nonkonyane

The family of the late singer and dancer Sakhile Hlatshwayo, popularly known as Killer Kau, paid tribute to him by visiting his grave on what would have been his 26th birthday.

Back in 2021, the singer lost his life alongside artists Mpura, Khanya ‘The Voice’ Hadebe, DJ Thando TOY and TD in a car accident, on their way to a gig in Rustenburg. The Tholukuthi Hey hitmaker was at the peak of his career at the time of his death, as he had just won the South Africa Amapiano Music Award under the category of Best Amapiano Collaboration just before he passed.

What would have been Killer Kau’s 26th birthday recently was an emotional day for family members and fans of the artist. Online publication MDN News posted the video of his family visiting his grave on X (previously known as Twitter) where internet users sent their condolences.
