Late Nigerian rapper Dagrin who died in 2010

Death is inevitably a part of this journey we call life. We are well aware of it, yet we are still surprised by its occurrence.  It is especially difficult when it happens to those we think it shouldn’t happen to  – the very young or uniquely bright souls. Unfortunately, when it does, what we can do is honor the lives of those gone too soon.  In this case, we are showcasing 8 African rising music stars who died under the age of 30.

All of these artists showed great promise.  A sad reminder that there are many dreams that don’t get a chance to come to full fruition.
