The song that was referred to by the media personality turned out to be one she had recorded in 2005 with the help of musician and reality TV star Bongani, making it 17 years since it went missing.

Bongani responded to Bonang's heartbreaking tweet by claiming that he doesn't have the track, but it should be with his former record label, Muthaland Records. TshisaLIVE contacted Muthaland Records, and they say Bongani definitely has the track:

"When Bongani returned to Muthaland in 2014 to do the Brenda Fassie 10-year legacy project, he took the computer that had all the back-up files."

The record label also confirmed that Bonang's song was a hit, as she mentioned on Twitter, and that it's a shame it was never released.

Fans have reacted to these claims.
