ROBBIE MALINGA DIES

Kwaito legend Robbie Malinga has passed on... The renowned music producer succumbed to anaemia on Christmas day in 2017. He is best known for producing hits for a number of artists such as kwaito giants Brown Dash, Thebe and Afro pop musos Ntando, Mafikizolo, Kelly Khumalo, Zahara and lately Musa Sukwene. 

Over the years Robbie's health started deteriorating to a point where he lost a lot of weight causing widespread speculation. He came into prominence in the early 90's with his hit single ínsimbi' and worked his way up the producer ranks contributing vocals here and there to fellow artists. 

His funeral was attended by a slew of celebrities including DJ Sbu and Kelly Khumalo. He leaves behind his wife and children. RIP 'Nsimbi'.
