That Nota interview with Mac G really did some damage! Artists are still arguing over what he said about Nasty C, Shane Eagle and A Reece not being authentic South African artists. The producer also said he is responsible for Kwesta's success. That's not all he wants Cassper to slow down and focus on grooming the next talent.
The biggest bone of contention was when he said AKA out rapped K.O Run Jozi. Fans and music peers alike were not here for this and made their discontent know. Rapper Zingah reignited the debate again today.
We ALL know KO killed AKA on Run Jozi. Killing someone on a song isn’t always about out rapping them. It’s about the more impactful performance. So as true as everything Nota said was, he still was wrong.
Twitter has been been abuzz ever since with tweeps who think Zingah is right and those who think AKA was the better rapper.
Here are the two verses. Pick your fighter.
[Verse 1: AKA] Started from bottom, was rolling around in that Toyota bakkie The summer is ours, I’m hungry for power, Gaddafi Gaddafi You turn on the tube and all that you see is Versace Versace You go to my school, they can't tell you sh*t about Chris Hani Chris Hani This ain’t the land of the free, no propaganda machine Handle my flag on the screen, then light a candle for ‘Dibs Then light a candle for ‘Dibs, okay Smoking the jets, smoke, smoking the jets Smoking them like cigarettes Taking it straight to the head Drinking Select This is the sweetest revenge
[Verse 2: K.O] My flow is so harzadous Mfanakithi, can’t nobody handle this I annihilated all my competition so there’s no further challenges Look, going against the authority ntwana is totally blasphemous In a city where having no morality is totally fabulous What’s going on with these amateurs over the internet posting some messages Next thing you know your career is over, ntwana, over some characters It’s the juxtaposition of choosing stupidity over intelligence Ntombazana ushishiliza ngendunu phansi and you're hoping for happiness Emhlabeni mel’uz’bheke, it’s crucial Ubothemb’itshe than uthembe umuntu They laugh in your face while they planning to shoot you Bafuna njukuculel’amagugu Ng’zobamba ngo-left, ngik’bambe ngo-right, mina kleva I’ll hurt you We outchea living that Eskom life, yeah we in that power circle See all I ever wanted was a peace of mind to speak my mind the streets are mine Yeah I ain't even reached my prime, ng’sazokwenza dizzy blind Ngisazokwenza busy blind Aw mina ngiy’ntsimb’edl’ezinye, redefined Just read between the lines and when the sparks fly hope you can see the grind See the grind, yeah
