NOTA Baloyi, the South African music executive famous for constantly voicing his opinion on anything he believes in, has done it again, provoking derision and anger from some areas of social media. What actually occurred?
This Is Colbert, a popular Twitter user, uploaded a clip of one of Brenda Fassie’s songs, noting that it was a fine number – a timeless offering that would touch the soul of anyone who listened to it. He eventually referred to her as an icon.
NOTA reacted angrily to the article, saying that “star” is a better word to describe her because she was “a terrible human being” who exposed her single song, Bongani Fassie, to the drug life.
He claimed Brenda Fassie was not only an addict, but she also exposed her only kid to the same lifestyle, which is still impacting him now. You can see his tweet below.
Brenda Fassie left her son suffering because she loved drugs more than being a good Mom… Her music’s legendary but she was a terrible human being for exposing her child to to drug dealers addicts & a life of turmoil. Best not use the word icon rather say she was a star, feel me? https://t.co/hkyaNNojnO

It is considered in several parts of Africa that one should not speak ill of the deceased. However, it appears that NOTA does not share this viewpoint. Since he tweeted, a couple of missiles have fallen on his head.
