Gospel Star Solly Moholo has passed away

It’s with a heavy heart that we share the news of the passing of seasoned gospel musician Solomon Molokoane, affectionately known as Solly Moholo, according to Sunday World . The announcement came from his management on Wednesday, October 2, 2024, leaving fans and the music community in shock and sorrow.

In a heartfelt statement, the Molokoane family expressed their grief, saying, “It is with great sadness that we are informing you… that our beloved legend ‘Solly Moholo’ has sadly passed on.” Solly was hospitalized after falling ill following his pre-album launch tour in Botswana, and he will surely be missed by many.

Solly was more than just a musician; he was a beacon of hope and healing through his music. His laughter and spirit will continue to resonate in the hearts of those who loved him. The family has requested privacy during this difficult time as they prepare for his burial.

Just a couple of months ago, there was hope for his recovery after a statement indicated that his health was improving. However, things took a turn when it was revealed he required urgent brain surgery while in the ICU. Sadly, he didn’t make it through.

Fans from Botswana adored him, and his performances were always a highlight. But it wasn’t all sunshine; earlier this year, Solly faced some backlash for not showing up at a gig in Limpopo, leaving fans disappointed. He later apologized and promised to make it up to them.

As we remember Solly Moholo, let’s celebrate the incredible music he gifted us and the joy he brought into our lives. May his legacy live on, and may he find peace in the echoes of heaven. Rest in peace, Solly. You will be sorely missed.
