Finally, someone who knew her that time.
I was very little that time, I listened to her song because my dad is a fan of Brenda Fassie
We had her album, you didn’t mention these beautiful tracks
Ngyakusaba
No no senor
Zola budd
And this video about the indigenous Zulu tribe where the ladies danced naked .
I grew up listening to Brenda fassie, Anita ward etc

If I list all her songs, I won't leave here today. Reason I said I had her albums. So imagine...
All these ones you mentioned are in one album. So that's a fraction of her songs I had or know.

That one they did nake was their traditional dance which was aired by NTA then every Saturday. Most people knew it.

What of " high class" where she was dissing that young guy?

The part where she said

" You think you're something special
But I know where you live
You Come from the ghetto
Just like me"

You think you're high class
Baby
High class
" Masaye Ma top top"

lol.. I hope I'd got that right...

I recall we used to listen to her songs then when I was a teenager, though we never understood anything she sang.

The adopted son also died

She adopted the boy who later fell in love with Whitney daughter, because she wanted her wealth to revolve around her family

Hmm... A whole family just finished like that.
Sad.

Everyone is battling some stuffs and that is why addiction to Jesus is the only saving grace on this earth. Addiction to the immoral destroys be it pornography, drugs, alcohol or lust. It slows one. I bet you this woman would have achieved better if she wasn't a drug addict. I pray for anyone under any for of addiction, be free in the name of Jesus!.

Between this OP and a certain righteousness419 who do you think is communicating?

One is advising you on morals and self control while one is threatening your life with hell fire as if he's the one that will ignite it. Always attaching everything negative to end time.


If they rob in Sokoto it is sign of end time but the criminal that the Jews asked to be released to them and crucify Jesus was a robber. Was that end time too?


OP thank you jare.

I really liked her then. So energetic in her videos and performances on stage.

I bought almost all her albums in the early 2000 and was always blasting it in the office.

My favorite of her songs are
Wedding day
Mi do do do la do ti
Tender care
And her hit song in yr 2000. Vulindulela. In fact, I love all her songs. Including the one she did with magic system " Matilsso".

Her death shook the world because she had fans all over.

Back in 2000 We played the audio cd on repeat till it cracked embarassed

Sad end indeed

Remove masturbation from your list, its not a dangerous addiction like you claim.


In fact, 9 in every 10 men was once a masturbator if not 10 in every 10 men.



Masturbation is a natural phenomenon that has no correlation with drug addiction or alcoholism or other dangerous addictions.


Even animals masturbate, so remove that from your list

Vaseline Crew Don’t like this list.

Did you ever find out what was behind her addiction? Many people only hear the news but have you heard her story? It's so easy to tell people "don't do this don't do that"....but have you asked them why they did it? And what led them to do it?

One of the early African victim's of woke culture.

She did everything most new age Nigerian's are now adopting.

Le**o, nudity, drug's and a reckless lifestyle in general. The type who relished in living free from judgement but became enslaved by it.

If una like continue copying rubbish. Choices have consequences!

Tech is the new gold, embrace it and abandon woke culture.

Yeah I do. I watched her "mi do do" song a lot as a child. I grew up and continued buying her albums.

Her addiction ( according to reports then ) was as a result of her baby daddy whom she loved so much but got dumped by him.

Who wouldnt like Brenda? She was a great artist..

I knew whitney in my sec school days. I think Brenda died before her or so.

Whitney's daughter too died of the same drugs. Don't know what has become of her adopted son now. This life though.

He died too of drugs

Interesting15:
Hello guys. So I was working on a project recently, and came across the heartbreaking story of a dead South African celebrity known as Brenda Fassie. I decided to write this to discourage more people out there to do away with bad addictions.

So, Brenda was quite talented as a singer and songwriter, and her talents helped her to the top of her career. Unfortunately, she became addicted to drugs. It was so bad that a report stated that she blew away more than R10-million, courtesy of her addictions. At some point, she had to write off six of her cars, including a Mitsubishi Pajero worth R300,000 and R280,000. The Pajero was believed to have been taken by drug lords, and it disappeared without trace.

It was also revealed that she made attempts to stop her drug habit, and she checked in at rehabilitation centers 30 times, spending up to R300 000. Unfortunately, she died in April 2004, and the post-mortem report revealed that she had taken an overdose of cocaine the previous day before she gave us the ghost. Her addictions damaged her completely.

Just imagine the very first time she tasted cocaine. She would probably have been excited, thinking she just found a new adventure that's pleasurable. Only if she knew that was the beginning of her slavery to what will kill her...

Some of you reading this right now might be addicted to something dangerous too. It might be alcoholism, smoking, prostitution, masturbation, stealing, porn, clubbing, gambling, womanizing, etc. Listen, you have to make a decision to stop, hence it will damage you one day.

I know some of you have been trying to stop doing those dangerous things you are addicted to, but it seems you just can't help yourself. Well, truly, you can't help yourself. That's why I will recommend that you give God the wheel of your life to enable Him help you

How? By getting closer to Him in an intimate relationship. How? By embracing Jesus as LORD and Saviour, and deciding to live according to His dictates. Indeed, JESUS won't fail you.

For those of you that just started doing something bad, you better stop immediately, before you get addicted to it. It might appear as if you are having fun (you might even think you can always control it), but in the blink of an eye, it becomes an addiction, and turned you into its slave - making you a miserable person before finally destroying you.

If you want to get addicted to anything, thenget addicted to good things that will help you. Get addicted to the things of God (studying the Bible, praying, etc). Get addicted to learning good and productive things.

Finally, to anyone still under the yoke of a brutal addiction, you are free in Jesus Name Amen

Can masturbation kill?
Any addiction that can't kill is not that Dangerous.
