Yanga Chief took to Instagram to remember two of music's fallen heroes, AKA and Costa Titch. The rapper remembered his fellow musicians and friends in a heartfelt Instagram post.
Yanga Chief and AKA's friendship was one which warmed the hearts of many. When Yanga spoke so profoundly during AKA's memorial service, it showed once again how much of a good friend Kiernan Jarryd Forbes was to those close to him.
Yanga said it is tough to accept this new reality they are facing on a daily but they do so because it is what AKA would have wanted.
“Waking up to this reality daily is heavy to bear. So many conversations I wish had gone differently. The arrogance to think 'we still have time'. Will we ever get over ourselves sisaphila? I’m beyond grateful for what we created, Forbes. Not just songs, not just memories, but we actually changed people's lives.
“I’m not sure which direction I’m headed, but every day I ask myself what would you do in this situation and without fail I just do it. I will not let your legacy go to waste bro. I’m fighting every day for the dream we shared. You believed so much in me, the least I can do is to believe in myself more,” he said.
Yanga spoke so profoundly about AKA during his memorial: "Kiernan was a blessing to all of us but in this moment I find his soul being a blessing to himself. I the same way he offered me prayer in the time of need I would like to do the same for him. May we please bow our heads and pray. Father, in the Mighty name of Jesus we lift up Kiernan in prayer, as we remember his life and the impact he had to those around him. Heavenly Father we ask for your mercy and grace upon Kiernan as he begin his journey to his eternal life" Yanga Chief said.
Yanga also defended AKA's friends when social media users pointed their fingers at them.
"As far as I’m concerned anybody spreading conspiracies is PURPOSEFULLY deviating attention from the REAL killers and is essentially defeating the ends of justice by trying to muddy the FACTS. What’s done in the dark ALWAYS comes to light!!!!
""You’re not gonna push some narrative that AKA was some kind of fool who was betrayed by his friends just so you can feel better about being an out and out hater while he was still breathing!!! You are the enemy Msu*u!!! We don’t f*ck with you!! Bozo!!! Neither did FORBES!!!" said an angry Yanga to one of their accusers, Nota.
"Now you wanna destroy the love of people Forbes cared about over some likes. Mother fu*k you are a heartless piece of shit!! Noba ungathini WE WILL NEVER F*CK WITH YOU!!!!"
