Thandiswa, on the other hand, recalled meeting the legendary and late Mariam a few months ago.
Taking to her Instagram the singer wrote the following as she reminisces on meeting the late star.
“Mama Africa. Often before I step on stages there are names that accompany me (abakhaphi) Hers is one of them. Thank you for your spirit mama, and your life’s work.”
“Tonight, we step on to another stage to share music, love and truth with people.”
“This was the great Miriam Makeba and I during the shoot of a drum magazine memorial advert where I was shown as the “next” to hold he baton. What an honor that was. I was in her audience so many times and every conversation is etched in my memory for always. May all our ancestors continue to guide us,” she wrote.
