The 48-year-old singer, who was only 16 when her mom died on 22 April 1992, says the memory of her mom continues to fade, and she often fails to recognise her.

Taking to her social media pages, King Tha shared an old photo of her smiling mother with background music of her song, Kulungile, with Nduduzo Makhathini:

"The memory continues to fade. They used to say I laughed like her; no one says that anymore. Sometimes, I hardly recognise the face, only that I know this is my mother.

"What a beautiful ancestor. I always shed a tear for those three little girls and that baby boy. They had a hard time, but they are fighting on."

A fan asked the Tiny Desk alumni if there were any songs her mother used to sing to her, and she responded:
