Crushing On Bongani Fassie

There are so many reasons why we love Bongani Fassie: a talented singer, songwriter and producer, he’s also very humble. #Winning

Bongani Fassie practically grew up right in front us, what with being the son of the late iconic Brenda. We’ve seen him grow from a little shy man, always tagging along during his mom’s many travels, to a handsome, humble artist. He totally deserves to be our Monday Man Crush of the week, and here’s why.

SUPER TALENTED

Bongani got his talent from the best – Brenda Fassie was a super force to be reckoned with in the music industry so it’s no surprise that her musical prowess rubbed off on her impressionable son. We love that Bongani has carved his own unique skill in the industry.

GOOD LOOKING FELLA

Look, Bongani is very easy on the eye. We love his chocolate skin and it doesn’t hurt that he’s always dapper.

HUMBLE PIE

There’s nothing more charming than a respectful man with and a kind heart. We have a sweet tooth for his humble personality.

FAMILY MAN

Bongani has always put his family first. Since becoming a father, he can’t stop gushing about how cute his daughter is. It’s good to know there are men who care a lot more about their family more than they do about anything else.

HUSTLER

Bongani is always on the move, always doing his part to shake things up in the music industry, and constantly working on something better. As we wait to see what else the celebrity has in store for us, we’ll continue crushing on him.
