George “Fiji” Veikoso, a Fijian icon whose soulful voice and timeless music touched hearts across the Pacific and beyond has passed away. Polynesian Music has announced this on its social media page. “The Greatest of All Time. Rest in Love, Fiji.” “It is with heavy hearts and deep sadness that we share the news that @f1j1 has passed away. A beautiful soul has been called home." “A life so full, so meaningful. Fiji was more than an artist. He was a movement, a voice for the people, a light in the dark. There was, and always will be, only one Fiji.” “His music wasn’t just something we listened to. It was something we lived through. It was the soundtrack to our childhoods, our family parties, our car rides, our quiet nights, our celebrations, and our heartbreaks.” “There is a Fiji song in every playlist. He was the artist the entire household listened to. The one who brought generations together. A waymaker, a storyteller, a pillar of island music. His voice carried the weight of our stories, our culture, and our emotions, and his impact stretched far beyond the islands.” “Fiji inspired artists across the world. He opened doors and set a standard for what it meant to be timeless, soulful, and real. His presence was larger than life, but his spirit was always grounded in love, truth, and connection.” “Thank you, Fiji, for your gift. For your music, your heart, and your legacy. You gave us so much, and we will carry it with us forever.” “Rest in love...George “Fiji” Veikoso, your song will never end.”
