The Makhado family has vowed to honour the legacy of the late hip hop artist, Rikhado “Riky Rick” Makhado. Makhado is understood to have committed suicide due to depression last Wednesday. RIPRickyRick

The 34-year-old rapper leaves behind his wife, two children, mother, and five siblings.“I think about nine years together, here are some of the things I’m most grateful for; our journey as parents started at the beginning of our relationship. He was an amazing father to Jordan. They had the most incredible bond from day one. She brought softness to his life. And his to hers. Riky and I were then blessed with our second child, Mike.

“He always wanted me to figure out what I wanted to do for me, and to find which would set my soul on fire. Little did he know that he was it. Ours was a destined, pre-ordained match as though God himself made it. So, we would find each other in this lifetime. I was put in his life to love him, to care for him, and to help him on his journey to fulfill part of his purpose. Ours was a deep pure love.”Mourners were all dressed in white to pay their last respects to the hip hop and fashion icon.

The mother of the late hip hop artist, Louise Zondo, expressed gratitude for the lessons she learnt from her son’s vulnerability. “I want to thank you for the lasting lessons that I learnt from your vulnerability. I want you to now rest. I want you to now go and meet with your freedom. We will carry on with your legacy. Your beautiful children will be led, will be loved. May it be well with you my son. Ahh Ndawo Ndou, Bamsanda, Vho Makhado. Lala ngoxolo mtanami.”

The Boss Zonke hitmaker will not only be remembered as a family man with a great fashion sense, but his legacy endures through his music.
