Fellow musicians including Shugasmakx, DJ Fresh and Cassper Nyovest spoke about how HHP's legacy lives on not just in his own music, but through the music of all the artists' he helped along the way.
Cassper fondly remembered how HHP believed in him right from the start and when he didn't have an income would pay him to be his 'hype man.'
There was also fitting musical tributes including a performance of HHP's hit track Harambe which had his partner, Lerato Sengadi sobbing.
