Zakes Bantwini Pays Tribute To AKA After Featuring On Nadia Nakai’s Single “Missing You.” The tragic loss of AKA will always serve as a haunting reminder of how the South African music industry was deprived of one of its most iconic artists.
His impact on the music scene was profound, and his absence leaves an irreplaceable void that resonates deeply with fans and fellow musicians alike. In a heartfelt effort to honour and preserve his memory, Nadia Nakai joined forces with South African music legend Zakes Bantwini along with Shekhina for a poignant tribute song titled “Missing You.”
Taking to Instagram, Zakes expressed that the song meant a lot as they took time to honour AKA who was tragically murdered last year in Durban. “Had the honour of working & producing this amazing record with my boy @dave_audinary_sa . This record meant a lot because we honoured and remembered our brother SUPA MEGA, S/O to @nadianakai, @shekhinahd!!” Wrote Zakes Bantwini.
The song “Missing You” was unveiled alongside another powerful track, “M.E.G.A (MAKE EVERYTHING GODLY AGAIN),” marking a significant moment for Nadia Nakai as she builds anticipation for her upcoming album, THE BRAGGACY.
These releases not only showcase her versatility as an artist but also serve as a tribute to the late AKA, capturing the emotions and memories that continue to resonate within the South African music community. THE BRAGGACY promises to be a reflection of her journey, blending heartfelt tributes with bold statements, all while reaffirming her place in the competitive music industry.
