It’s been just over a week since rapper Kiernan “AKA” Jarred Forbes was gunned down in Durban outside Wish On Florida restaurant. Since the news broke on social media, his friends, fans and even foes have not stopped posting online about the multi-award-winning star.

His memorial service, which is opened to the public, was held on Friday at the Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg. It was live streamed on YouTube.

As the Megacy prepared to bid farewell to the “Company” hitmaker, who was laid to rest in a private ceremony on Saturday, we look back at a few viral videos of Supa Maga that are currently trending under #AKAMemorial and made us smile.

The most recent video that released on social media was that of AKA and his friends jamming to his newly released song “Company”.

AKA was a big fan of “drinking water” and “minding his own business”, this video that he posted back in 2019 had many people in stitches.
