Popular South African artiste and dancer, Costa Titch, has slumped and died following an alleged seizure episode on stage.

The 27-year-old musician was performing at the Ultra music festival in Johannesburg, in the late hours of Saturday, 11 March 2023, when he suddenly collapsed.

At the time of this publication, there was no certainty as to what led to the slumping or the cause of his death.

It is gathered that the ‘Big Flexa’ hitmaker had a history of epilepsy and it’s feared strobing lights on the stage triggered the seizure.

The 35-year-old was killed along with his close friend, the chef and entrepreneur Tebello ‘Tibz’ Motsoane.
