Remembering Melvyn Matthews | Tribute to songwriter & performer Melvyn Matthews: Buli G Ngomane
South Africa is mourning the loss of celebrated songwriter, producer and performer Melvyn Matthews, affectionately known as "Mr Weekend Special." He died at the age of 67. Matthews' career took off in 1983 when he co-wrote and produced the iconic hit 'Weekend Special', which made Brenda Fassie 'MaBrrr', into global stardom. He was working with and for the Legendary Blondie and Pappa at the time. The song sold over 200 000 copies, reached the American Billboard charts, and carried South African music to audiences across the United States, Europe, Australia and Brazil. More than 40 years later, it remains one of the most beloved songs ever produced in the country. As we remember him this afternoon, we are joined Media Personality, Buli G Ngomane who shared the stage a number of occasions.
