'Magesh taught me to believe in myself'– TKZee members Zwai and ... (News24)

Family and friends spoke fondly of Kwaito artist Tokollo “Magesh” Tshabalala as he was laid to rest.

“That back of the house is where we started to believe. Magesh, we changed the world, toured the world, got arrested, fought, cried, we won big and lost big. We would go to the back of the house to resume our extracurricular activities. “There was a time Magesh unprompted by anybody, walked up to the church and received Christ as his Lord and saviour. “It blesses my heart that Tokollo got to experience the love of Christ. It is well documented that I am a pastor and I've given my life to my lord and saviour Jesus Christ. The back of the house is where we, spoke, dreamt, what existed in our hearts happened at the back of the house.” I tried to let my life speak volumes,” he says. He saw in me that I didn’t see in myself, from day one.” “It made me reflect and go back to the beginning, on the five minutes I had before I met him. As funny as it can be, that back of the house is where it started.” But it was always music that connected us,” he says.
