Sipho “Brickz” Ndlovu is said to be making gospel music in prison and has also joined the choir to keep his sanity.
A buddy who visited the musician in prison told how he is surviving his 15-year sentence.
“He is very remorseful and serving his time the best way he knows how,” he says.
“In the beginning, he had not accepted that he will be serving time but now he is at peace and paying his dues. He is involved in projects and keeping himself busy and he has not stopped making music.”
“He has changed. He listens to more gospel music and started making gospel. He also sings in the choir; he has always been a good singer outside of kwaito and rapping. He will always be a kwaito artist, but gospel has kept him sane and thinking positively. His faith has improved, and he is wise and a spiritual guy. That is the Sipho that we all grew up with before the fame.”
Brickz was convicted of raping his 16-year-old niece in his Ruimsig house in 2013.
The girl bled after the encounter, and her hymen ruptured because she was a virgin at the time, causing her much anguish.
Brickz had told the victim to take a bath after the rape, and he had threatened to kill her if she told anyone. He further stated that the victim was unaware she was infected with a sexually transmitted disease.
The young girl’s family was relieved that the law intervened because their daughter was on the verge of committing suicide.
Meanwhile, the Kwaito musician was shown to be unremorseful and refused to apologize to the family.
