Malik Bandjelloul is dead and the world is different!

A message about somebodies death – concerning someone I had never met – has never effected me in this way before!

Yes, once before – when John Lennon died – but that was different.

I feel as though a friend has died, a soul mate and a human being with whom I liked to share the experience of life.

Even if we did not know each other.

An interesting and unexpected connection is that part of the family on his mother’s side are Swedish speaking Finns, like me.

But Searching for Sugarman will become anand that we still can enjoy all the other programs Malik produced at SVT as a

cultural journalist and editor. Here as some of them (in Swedish). A tribute by his friends at SVT.

And his Sommarprat i P1.
