“AWKWARD” AKA Gives Somizi A Death Stare After His Idols SA Perfomance
It seems as though Somizi Mhlongo ruffled AKA’s feathers on Sunday night, at the finale of Idols SA season 18, after the rapper’s performance.

The finale of Idols SA season 18 came to a spectacular on Sunday night, with Thapelo Molomo emerging as thewinner. This was one of the most hotly contested seasons of the show yet. Nozi Sibiya was the season’s runner-up.

AKA set the stage ablaze when he performed a medley of songs including his smash hit All Eyes on Me, alongside JR Bogopa, and Somizi had a few express to about the performance.

The Idols SA judge did not mince his words when he said “I have seen better.” Shortly after saying that, AKA gave  him a death stare and clearly his commentary did not sit well with the rapper.

Tweeps weighed on this and accused Somizi of inheriting Cassper and AKA’s beef.

@theSA_brand commented: “Somizi is Cassper’s friend, but AKA had to keep calm and not take it that seriously #IdolsSA”

@LizaNjee commented: “Wasn’t Somizi involved in AKAs drama back then? Did they ever fix it?”

@DQFab_ZA commented “He always inherit beefs. Trust me.”

In 2020, Somizi defended AKA following the backlash he received from the LGBTQI+ community after calling Cassper Nyovest a m**fie.

Somizi accepted AKA’s apology and said everyone make mistakes. “I’d like to apologize to anybody offended by my use of the word “Moffie” in a previous tweet. At some point, i thought it wasn’t a big deal to use this word. I understand now that it’s not acceptable,” tweeted Somizi.

In a series of tweets, AKA issued an apology to those he offended, and said he thought it was not a big deal: “I would like to apologize to anybody offended by my use of the word “Moffie” in a previous tweet. At some point, i thought it wasn’t a big deal to use this word. I understand now that it’s not acceptable.”
