In related news, Briefly.co.za previously reported that Yanga Chief took to social media to share an appreciation video message he received from King Dalindyebo. The rapper gave the king of AbaThembu a shout-out in his smash single titled Utatakho.
At the time he dropped the track, the king was in prison serving his 12-year sentence. He was only released in December 2019.
In one of the lines on Utatakho, Yanga raps:
"On my Dali Dalindyebo."
Yanga's mention of King Dalindyebo in the hit track has finally reached his king's ears. The musician is one of a few Xhosa rappers who are not ashamed to rap about their culture using their own language.
Yanga shared the king's message on his Instagram account. He captioned the post:
"My my message finally reached its destination."
He also used the opportunity to wish King Dalindyebo, who had a health scare at the time, a speedy recovery.
