Ncwane produced award-winning hits including Phakama Nkosi yeZulu and Kulungile Baba. He won record of the year at the 2013 South African Music Awards.
The singer made headlines last year after he bought his pastor a R1.9-million Mercedes-Benz.
The Kulungile Baba hitmaker said Pastor Anosike had "saved his life through prayer" and he felt he had to repay him.
It was later reported that he was struggling to make the payments.
Reports of the singer's death hit social media after Twitter user Mmatona Ntuane broke the news.
Her social media profiles say she works for the KwaZulu-Natal department of health.
