GALXBOY's AKA Tribute T-shirt
GALXBOY has took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to announce the special limited edition tribute t-shirt of the late AKA. This could be music to the ears of the fans as they get to show love and pay homage to "The Supamega" officially with a tee like this. It's available on galxboy.co.za for only R700. Unfortunately, you gotta get one fast before they are sold out.

This happens after a series of exhibitions were held in the rapper's memory at the Mall of Africa. The exhibitions that celebrated his would-have-been 36th birthday displayed exclusive AKA art pieces and merchandise. According to AKA's father prior to the birthday, the "limited-time showcase offers a unique opportunity for the public to acquire one-of-a-kind pieces."
AKA and GALXBOY

But, he was a true patroit of South African culture. His support of Mzansi's culture is evident in his music and fashion. How can we overlook how he rocked the local GALXBOY like a boss and how he referenced it in Lemonade saying, "GALXBOY, that's culture"?
Apart from the cool spectacle these tees are, it's even more cool that the profit goes to The Kiernan Forbes Foundation. So, by purchasing these limited edition tees, fans will be contributing to the foundation and honouring the legendary star.

The family went on to clarify that "in particular, the Foundation intends to use his platform to develop young South Africans within the music industry, education and broader art world."
