Gospel star Winnie Mashaba is mourning the loss of her long time mentor Solly Moholo, who died on Wednesday at the age of 65.
In a moving tribute on social media, Mashaba reflected on the role Moholo played in her early career.
I was very young and clueless about the music industry. My mom handed me over to Malome Solly Moholo, he trained me and guided me throughout. It's so painful to say Rest In Peace, Malome Solly. Until we meet again on the other side of the world.
Known for his electrifying performances and the signature 'mokhukhu jive,' Solly Moholo, whose real name was Solomon Molokoane , was a giant in the gospel world.
His most recent work included the single Wubani o zo Pepeza, released in September 15.
