Fiji gave us island classics like “Lia” and “Sweet Darlin’”. His voice, full of soul and island pride, touched hearts all over the Pacific.
Last year, he returned home and rocked the stage at Homecoming Fiji in Nadi, a night fans will always remember.
He was also set to headline this year’s Homecoming Festival in September.
Since the news broke, tributes have been flowing from all over, many calling him the “voice of the Pacific.”
Polynesian Music announced his passing on its social media page.
