Today I lost a friend. @hughmasekela was a pioneer. He was one of the first musicians to spread African Music all over the world. But most of all, he was a funny, generous and beautiful soul! pic.twitter.com/tRsL0OVQml

I’m just really sad. Baba Hugh had so much life in him and an energy and desire to do more. I’m privileged to have worked with him. He impacted my life in a BIG way. Love you Uncle Hugh! #RIPHughMasekela pic.twitter.com/JBt0cbIjH0

#RIPHughMasekela I once got a chance to Jam with him on National TV and for the past 2 Years, I tried to recreate this moment at Fill Up but he wasn’t able to commit to coming to perform with me. I will cherish this moment forever but most importantly the wisdom you shared. ❤️ pic.twitter.com/Em9FP3yJhw

A beautiful soul he was, when most jazz musicians didn't want to recognize us as #clubdjs and Kwaito musicians he embraced with so much ❤️.My last gig with him, last year, we spent time being playful.#RIPBraHughMasekela 💔 pic.twitter.com/JYobVWpAkm
