4 years ago today our beloved Johnny passed away. His loss has been felt every day and we miss him dearly. But his memory continues to hold and stand us by. Go well Tata, we are forever grateful for your great heart ❤️ The Clegg Family

[Johnny Clegg @JohnnyCleggReal]

He was also a lifelong friend of Johnny and the family’s and his support and compassion was always felt. We will miss him dearly and always hold the memories of spending time with him very close. Go well Baba Harry, we have lost a special soul. #RIPHarryBelafonte

[Johnny Clegg @JohnnyCleggReal]

The Clegg family is devastated to hear the news of the passing of the great Harry Belafonte. He was a passionate activist, humanist, musician and a beautiful lifeforce to all who knew him. Even in his final years, he was as engaged and dynamic as ever, full of wisdom and humor.

[Johnny Clegg @JohnnyCleggReal]

Johnny wrote “The Crossing” about this sacred transition and it was a moving experience to celebrate this milestone with loving family and the community of Makhabeleni where he spent so much time as a young man and throughout his life. Hamba kahle baba, you are always with us.

[Johnny Clegg @JohnnyCleggReal]

The Clegg family recently visited Tata Sipho Mchunu in Makhabeleni to perform a Zulu ritual to acknowledge Johnny’s passing. According to this tradition, his spirit has now made its crossing and can watch over the family as an ancestor.

[Johnny Clegg @JohnnyCleggReal]

She was a source of strength and comfort for us during our hardest moments and a treasured part of our family. She leaves behind her and Jesse’s beautiful daughter, Mylah, Johnny’s first grandchild, whose legacy lives on through her and Jesse. We will love and miss her forever.

[Johnny Clegg @JohnnyCleggReal]

The Clegg family is profoundly sad to share the news of the passing of Jesse’s partner, Dani. She was a beautiful spirit who brought an abundance joy and value to our lives. She was loved and admired by all of us.

A clip from the tribute concert for my father. @nicholaspetricholas & me recorded this special version of #CruelCrazyBeautifulWorld. My dad wrote this song for me when I was born & so singing these lyrics was an intensely moving experience.
