Popular South African rapper Costa Titch has died on stage at the age of 27. Rapper Costa Titch collapsed and died while performing at the Ultra Music Festival at the Expo Centre, in Johannesburg on Saturday night.
Even though the cause of death is yet to be confirmed, “Weekend Argus” understands that he had a seizure possibly triggered by the flashing lights.
