The murder case against Thulani Ngcobo better known as Pitch Black Afro has been postponed to January 24 for a formal bail application.
The well-known Hip Hop artist allegedly murdered his wife Catherine Modisane at a bed and breakfast lodge in Yeoville on December 30.
On Friday, he appeared in an empty gallery in Johannesburg Magistrate's court.
The Matofotofo hitmaker has been behind bars for more than a week.
The bail hearing was postponed in order for the state to verify Ngcobo's address. It has also now emerged that if granted bail, the rapper will be staying with his aunt.
His defence asked for more time to prepare for the bail application and the request was granted by Magistrate Carlo Labuschagne.
