Death has robbed us of another bright star. Like that of her idol, Brenda Fassie, Lebo Mathosa's sudden death is a great loss not only to all South Africans but to the world's music industry.

Lebo! You must know our music festivals will not be the same without you because your presence was always special.

We thank God for having given us the chance to know you and enjoy your music.

You were our own Beyonce but now God has decided to call you back.

Rest in peace, our own "Drama Queen".

Your absence will always be felt.

You were one in a million.
