about

Peta Teanet was a South African disco musician of Shangaan descent.

He lived at Thapane village, in Bolobedu south at Ga-Modjadji. He was killed by a policeman in Bushbuckridge Acornhoek during an argument. He attended high school at Kgwekgwe High School in Moleketla Village, Bolobedu South. He became fluent in Shona and also had a couple of songs he sang in Shona. He was born in South Africa. His debut album, Maxaka (we are relatives) was recorded in 1988. His music was influenced by Paul Ndlovu. He is the third born of Emma Teanet who was also a musician. Peta Teanet was the best and king of Xitsonga Disco Music during his time, he played his music with artists like Penny Penny who was his friend, Foster Teanet his younger brother, Joe Shirimane, and many more. Now his Legacy is within Benny Mayengani's veins. Hopefully, Mayengani will live for his supporters and family to bring back Teanet's music. He was one of the xitsonga disco musicians. The former ward 11 under Greater Tzaneen Local Municipality, Mopani District, has now changed its name to Peta Teanet ward.

The death of this legendary man can better be explained by the Acornhoek residents, this is where Peta Teanet was last seen performing. Acornhoek the Death place of the king of Xitsonga Disco
