Watch! Musa Keys Remembers The Late Stars Mpura And Killer Kau And How They Influenced The Amapiano Genre. Musa Appreciate Makamu, Musa Keys to his fans, seems to have it all. The voice, the fashion sense, the looks and the charm. He was born in Giyani and is the eldest of two children. He has always been a creative child from a young age and always wanted to do things that he loves the most and that bring him joy. Today he is known to be behind some of the biggest hits in Amapiano.
The star recently shared some words of keeping safe during this festive season. While at that, the star remembered the late stars Mpura, Killer Kau and Khanya Hadebe, who’ve all passed away this year after a fatal car accident. “They should be here even today, they were so influential to a point where you couldn’t ignore it. They were trying to bring back the Kwaito feeling in amapiano. They’ve motivated a lot of people to keep working hard and that you can get out of any situation you’re in. It’s so sad that they can’t be here today, they’ve helped us build the sound as a whole and they’re not here to see the fruits of it,” he said.
Fans and celebs were left heartbroken after the news of Killer Kau and Mpura’s deaths topped the trending charts. Sources confirmed that the pair were involved in a fatal car accident on their way to a Rustenburg gig. The accident also claimed the lives of upcoming artists Khanya “The Voice” Hadebe, DJ Thando Tot and TD, who were with the pair in the car.Mpura shone bright recently during the rise of the amapiano genre, having been part of great collabs that gave Mzansi hits including Umsebenzi Wethu.Killer Kau, real name Sakhile Hlatshwayo, burst into the spotlight when he was “discovered” on Twitter.
Musa is an all-rounder creative, he shares. He’s into fashion, drawing, music and even film. But there is something especial about music that connects him to people, which is why he chose it.“I want to do the things that I love, the crazy thing is that till today I still don’t think that I am superstar, I am never satisfied with what I achieve. I always see room for improvement, I seek constant growth. The best kind of music is music that is created in genuine good vibes and energy. If everyone’s energy doesn’t connect in studio, the song will feel forced. I don’t plan how I am going to do the songs, it flows naturally. Amapiano chose me before I started making amapiano, I was producing trap music.”
