The award-winning producer shared photos and videos on his social media accounts, showing himself hands-on, painting a local building in a township, participating fully in the Mandela Day spirit of selfless service.
In his caption, he proudly wrote: “Giving back on BAB’MOTHA Day 🤟,” referring to both his album title and Mandela Day in a unique and personal way. This act of kindness and humility has struck a chord with fans, who praised Kabza for remembering his roots and using his platform for good.
