At his burial service , AKA’s real name Kiernan Forbes had his tombstone unveiled, but this did little to provide comfort for the rapper’s supporters in the wake of his murder.

In actuality, it served as a sobering reminder that Supa Mega, the nickname he was fondly known by, was no longer in use.

 

 

 

 

 

On Saturday, February 18, a memorial service was held in the Westpark Cemetery to lay the hitmaker to rest.

The 35-year-old is interred in Heroes Acre alongside renowned celebrities like Joe Mafela and Hugh Masekela, according to the SABC.

Surprisingly, AKA’s grave marker was placed the same day he was buried.

Experts advise that a tombstone be placed 6 to 12 months after the burial, even if the practice is common.

Funeral home Broodie organized AKA’s five-star funeral service and put out the red carpet for the musician.

It was obvious that no cost had been spared, from the BMW motorcade to the classy church and gravesite setup.

Although AKA’s funeral was spectacular, his tombstone has drawn criticism from many social media users.

The grave marker was made of marble and said simply, “In Loving Memory of Kiernan Jarryd Forbes. Super Mega, live long and prosper.

The graphics on the stone were also created by a designer that AKA personally chose.

A black and white image of AKA and a cross completed the tombstone.
