Yep, confirmed. 65 years old. Possibly saw him live (with The Pogues, The Popes and solo) more than any other.

Lucky to see him live with The Pogues a few times and supporting The Clash with The Nips. Iconic and will be missed.

Benjamin Zephaniah is dead.

A brain tumour apparently, which was only diagnosed 8 weeks ago.
