The award-winning music icon had been in hospital for several weeks after falling ill while on a music tour in Botswana last month.

His management said he would be fondly remembered for the “healing music he gave us over the years”.

Last month, Moholo’s team said he had suffered a stroke and was experiencing multiple organ failure. His family launched a public appeal for funds to cover his medical costs.

“It is with great sadness that we are informing you on behalf of the Molokoane family, that is Solly Moholo’s family, that our beloved legend ‘Solly Moholo’ has sadly passed on,” his management said.

“He passed on 2nd October 2024 whilst in hospital.”

Fellow gospel singers, friends and fans have taken to social media to pay tribute to the late gospel star.

“He has left an indelible mark in the industry with his soulful gospel music [and] energetic live performances,” said the public broadcaster SABC.

The African National Congress (ANC) described Moholo as a true icon in the South African music industry.

“His powerful voice, passion for spreading the word of God, and dedication to uplifting the spirits of many through his music will forever be remembered,” ANC secretary general Fikile Mbalula posted on X, external.

“You will live forever in the hearts of South Africans Ntate,” the South African government posted, external.

The family has requested privacy as well as time to mourn and prepare for his burial.
