"He was a father to many of us. We listened to him when he spoke, took what he said and learned from it. Father to a whole generation, I'll forever be grateful for his presence on this earth, and I was lucky enough to be on the same lifetime as him. Long live Mr Cotton Eater, the Minister of Energy, Boss Zonke, King Khotin himself. He will never die but will always multiply."

"One man that changed the world indeed."

"We will Forever remember the Legend and we are so grateful God created such an icon, some day's I wish I could trade in a few artists to bring Riky back because we are left with more artists abangazi baphilelani but most importantly they are greedy they want to be seen and known as Alpha Males, that's an unnecessary sh*t when our people need your guidance and wisdom."
