AKA was shot dead in a drive-by shooting in Durban on Friday night, 10 February and police confirmed that he was assassinated. Taking to Instagram, Nadia posted a cute video of AKA in the studio rapping about her.

In the video, the late rapper raps a verse from his single Paradise while standing next to Gyakie. In the middle of rapping his lines, he receives a phone call from Nadia and informs her that he was busy rapping about her.

Nadia captioned the video "I wish I discovered you early💔❤️."


Celebs took to the comments section to comfort her.

@nandi_madida wrote, "Baby I’m busy rapping about you here ❤️❤️❤️. Godly love. 🙏🏽

@buhlesamuels wrote, "Once we feel love it becomes part of us forever! He is with you forever! ❤️

@dineomoeketsi, commented "It's just not fair 💔 Sending you love Nadia,"

@ladydu_sa commented, "We love you, sis, may the good Lord give you strength ❤️❤️❤️❤️ sending you love."

Following the burial of AKA on Saturday, Nadia Nakai broke her silence on social media about his death.

She wrote, “My heart is shattered. This is not what our future was meant to look like. I can’t believe I said my final goodbye to you yesterday. I’ll never see you again for the rest of my life? You loved me loud and proud, thank you baby. Protected me, prayed for me, and, inspired me. I find it hard to breathe let alone find the words to explain how much I love you,” she wrote. 

The rapper expressed her desire to spend the rest of her life with AKA, saying that she thought she would spend her entire life with him, but AKA is the one who spent his whole life with her.

“I’m going to miss all the special moments we’ve had. This hurts. I can’t come to terms with the fact that I’ll never hear you say you love me, I’ll never hear your laugh. We had plans.

“There is no pain bigger than the pain of losing you. I thought I was going to spend the rest of my life with you, realize you’re the one who spent the rest of your life with me. I don’t know why things happen the way they do, but I’m questioning God right now. Why would He bring us together only to take you away? I don’t understand. I don’t know how I’m going to do this, going on with my life without you.  I just can’t. Rest in peace Kiernan, I love you.”
