Having spent time in prison, Bruno turned his life around and focused on his talents.
He dappled in music with his ex-prison mate to form Gumshev, a music group that spoke about the life of an inmate and gangsterism through music.
BRUNO HAD SUCCESS IN MUSIC AND ACTING
Having met success in the music industry, he went on to become an actor. He became a popular feature on defunct etv’s Rhythm City as Bongani – a very uneasy artist to work with.
Since his passing social media has been flooded with tribute messages.
His former cast mate, actor Zola Hashatsi, took to Instagram to share a tribute to the late star.
