Inside late AKA's Bryanston home

AKA was one of the richest celebs in South Africa. The slain artist made money moves like no other local rapper. The star lived a soft life but never showed off his riches on his timeline.

The Fela In Versace hitmaker owns one of the biggest mansions in the leafy suburb of Bryanston in Johannesburg. ZAlebs reports that houses in Bryanston cost anything from N90 million upwards.

AKA hardly posted pics or videos of the stunning house but Legit.ng managed to find a few pics and clips of his beautiful home.
