Yvonne Chaka Chaka visits Brenda Fassie’s family

Yvonne Chaka Chaka paid the late Brenda Fassie’s family a visit.

She took to Twitter to share a video of the visit.

She and Brenda Fassie’s singer sang along to  Vulindlela with one of the late singer’s sisters who only recognized who it was as they were singing.

Speaking to the Daily Sun about the Visit this is what she had to say;

“The last time I went to see them was a couple of years ago, and when we arrived, they didn’t recognize us hence the reaction when they finally saw who it was. I also went to see how they are doing after their young brother Kenny passed away. I was Overseas when I heard the news and couldn’t attend the funeral,” she said.

“It was lovely seeing everyone, I actually didn’t put the whole video, but it was a beautiful feeling I am happy.  And to also bring something small just to share with them as a family I can’t explain the feeling. This is really a good start because it is a reminder that we need to be kind.”

Yvonne Chaka Chaka speaks on embracing her old age

Yvonne has spoken on how she is loving her old age .

Speaking to  TshisaLIVE that she has decided to embrace growing older‚ but that doesn’t mean she is planning to retire.

“I am never going to dye my grey. I love it. It shows that I have lived. I travel around the world and I see children dying at the age of five‚ so I am grateful for my life lived and I want to use it to help make a difference. I want to reach out and also make a difference through my music. As long as there is something to fight for‚ I won’t retire or shy away.”

“I don’t worry much about death. When I was younger I was scared and wouldn’t even talk about it‚ now I don’t care. Life is for the living. If I was to die today‚ I would be gone. I don’t worry because maybe I’ll be in a better place. Here you worry about crime and poverty‚ but when you are dead‚ you are dead. There is none of that worry.”
