The late star is credited for making the hip-hop genre popular in the country.AKA broke into the industry in 2010 with his debut album ‘Altar Ego’, featuring tracks such as ‘Victory Lap’ and ‘I want it all’.

The awards kept coming and while he appreciated the recognition from his peers and the industry, what was more important to him was his fans. “I think we are always looking for different ways to build our fan base but also expand on what we have already accomplished. I play with a band week in and week out, and I just wanted an extension of the music and the orchestra provides a perfect opportunity for that.”His more than 10-year music career has not been without controversy, from his rivalry with rapper Casper Nyovest to his romantic relationships.

“I am a big advocate for South African artists and their rights when it comes to the light in which we are viewed, with regards to oversees acts; I have said it before that I consider myself an international act. Last night for instance we premiered ‘one time’ on BBC extra in the UK,” he expressed in an interview.AKA continued to divide public opinion over various issues, however, he was unapologetic with his stances.
