Bongani Mangcu was a lyricist. He was also a son, a sibling, somebody's groupmate and somebody's friend. I never knew Bongani Mangcu but through his rhymes I wish I did. I didn't know Bongani Mangcu but I'm jealous of him because I see how his absence has affected the people who did know him, so I know that he mattered to them and I know he was loved.
People say Bangani was a great lyricist, graceful, fluent, inspiring. They say on a good night it almost seemed as though he could touch God with his lyrics and now he can.
