In a statement recently released by the Mkhize family, it turns out that ProKid’s cause of death was not a seizure as previously thought. 

According to the statement, ProKid complained of stomach pain before his death last Wednesday.

“Doctors revealed that Linda suffered from hemosuccus pancreaticus which is bleeding in the pancreas, pancreatic duct or structures near the pancreas such as the splenic artery, that bleed into the pancreatic duct,” said the statement.  

As soon as the news broke, social media was flooded with messages of support for the family and expressions of disbelief at his death. The rapper will be honoured with a memorial service on Thursday afternoon at Bassline and will be laid to rest at Heroes Acre after a funeral service on Sunday.
