Johnny passed on at the age of 66 after a long battle with pancreatic cancer which was diagnosed back in 2015, despite the health scare Clegg continued to tour and perform around the world.

According to eNCA news Clegg’s death was confirmed by his manager Roddy Quinn. “Johnny leaves deep footprints in the hearts of every person that considers him/herself to be an African. He showed us what it was to assimilate to and embrace other cultures without losing your identity. An anthropologist that used his music to speak to every person. With his unique style of music, he traversed cultural barriers like few others. In many of us, he awakened awareness.”

Johnny’s passing affected many people including SA rappers who expressed their appreciation for the way he served and sorrow for how he left too soon.
