Thami will then be buried on Saturday in Mtubatuba, northern KwaZulu-Natal.

Thami died last Thursday at Kalafong Hospital in Atteridgeville, Tshwane. This was just days after he collapsed on stage and failed to show signs of recovery. He was the breadwinner of his family, and left behind his mum and two younger siblings.

Before starting his music career, Thami was a private in the SANDF.
