Among those who credit part of their musical success to the gone soul is Hip-hop star and XYZ founder Slap Dee.

In a tribute, Slap Dee recalls that it was Black Stallion who held him down since his first single ‘Asembe Isebenza’. He described the late DJ as a person who always supported him in his music journey.

“Held me down from my first single Asembe Isebenza to the last time we met, when you hosted the 1xbet signing ceremony. You remained real, supportive and a brother all through these years. I’m glad that’s something I always proudly mentioned. Go well big brother. This has cut deep!” Slapdee said.
