His track \u201cBig Flexa,\u201d featuring C\u2019buda and Alfa Kat, resonated widely, taking over charts and dance floors while showcasing his unique artistry to an international audience.<\/p>\n<p>Tragically, his promising career ended on March 11, 2023, when he collapsed while performing at the Ultra South Africa festival in Johannesburg. He was just 28 years old. Subsequent medical evaluations indicated that an irregular heartbeat had caused a fatal seizure, with no evidence of foul play or substance use.<\/p>\n<p>Nearly three years later, Costa Titch&#8217;s influence is still significant. Fans, colleagues, and family continue to honor his memory through posthumous releases, popular dance challenges, and merchandise related to his cherished Titch Gang movement.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"@costatitchworld - Big Flexa ft.
