The late Brenda Fassie, one of South Africa’s most iconic pop stars, is being celebrated on a global stage. Spotify has erected a giant billboard in Times Square, New York, honouring the singer whose music defined the 1990s and early 2000s. Known for her ability to make people dance and feel joy during some of the country’s toughest times, Fassie’s legacy continues to resonate more than 19 years after her passing in May 2004.
