Bio

Inkosi Yamagcokama (also styled Inkos'yamagcokama), born Scebi Dlamini, was a KwaZulu-Natal maskandi singer known for soft, high-pitched vocals, love-themed songs and tracks such as 'Kungcono Ngife' (2017) and 'Asenzele Bona' (2019). He died at age 26 in a car crash in Richards Bay on 9 August 2026 while en route to the Basadi Let's Dance Music Festival, and his current chart presence is a posthumous surge of mourning.
