The Musaka family has faced significant public scrutiny over the past three years for the state of Soul Jah Love’s final resting place. The late star’s grave, initially marked only by rocks, wilted flowers, and a small sign with his name, date of birth, and date of death, had become a point of contention among fans and critics alike.
Last year, Soul Jah Love’s rival Seh Calaz publicly criticized the Musaka family, accusing them of neglecting the late musician’s grave despite being involved in high-profile events and financial dealings. Seh Calaz expressed his frustration over the lack of proper respect and maintenance for Soul Jah Love’s resting place, highlighting the discrepancy between public gestures and the reality of the situation.
In response to the criticism and public outcry, the Musaka family has now taken steps to honor Soul Jah Love’s memory properly. They have installed a high-pillared granite tombstone at the grave, which features one of the musician’s most popular photographs. The inscription on the tombstone reads, “Ngwendeza. Soul Jah Luv hachisi chinhu. Zvinhu. Makuruwani,” reflecting the profound respect and reverence for the artist.
The area around the tombstone has been adorned with fresh flowers and candles, creating a dignified tribute to the beloved musician. Following the unveiling of the tombstone, reactions online have been mixed, with some praising the family for finally addressing the issue, while others continue to express disappointment over the delay.
Soul Jah Love, known for his iconic hits like “Ndini Uya Uya,” had a significant impact on Zimbabwean music, and the new tombstone aims to reflect the respect and admiration he garnered during his life.
