Legendary Kenyan rapper Nazizi Hirji is mourning the passing of her second born son, Jazeel. She asked for privacy from the public saying they should give her time to mourn her son alongside her family and close friends.

Nazizi’s son passed away on Christmas day while outside Kenya in another country for a holiday vacation.

She said her son passed away in an unfortunate accident at a hotel they were staying in on vacation in Tanzania. The 3-yearold was burried a day after his death at their home back in Kenya..

In Kenya as a tradition, after death the dead body is kept for more than a week before it is burried. But again in some religions like Islam, that is not allowed.

Nazizi’s son was buried quickly that most Kenyans got to know about the bad news after the burial had happened. Her family also asked the media to stop invading her privacy during this trying times of her life.

“We appeal for your compassion and understanding out of respect for their need for peace in this time of mourning. We kindly request everyone to allow Nazizi and her family the space they need to begin the healing process,” reads part of the statement.

The singer has been quiet for some years and not produced any music. She was a member of the now-defunct East African Bashmen Crew. This comprised of herself, Wyre and Ugandan singer Bebe Cool.
