DANNY K: ONE OF THE GREATS

Years ago many South Africans enjoyed the sweet sounds of local hitmaker Daniel Koppel who is known fondly as Danny K.

The musician brought us a plethora of hits which most 90s babies can still sing along to word for word. Danny was also nominated for SAMA awards multiple times and won four during his heydays.

Despite his success, he slipped away from the music scene and graced SA with his last studio album Good Look all the way back in 2013.
