But it seems that just like most South Africans, the status quo of the country has also troubling implications for the rapper. This is as he shared his surprise and financial realities in light of the rising cost of living in South Ah.
Cassper suggests he is also cash strapped
Taking to Twitter recently, Cassper shared his surprise as to just how people are cash strapped in South Africa recently. As such, he asked his followers what they believe the reason for this was.
People are going through a lot financially. Ha gona zaka jo. It’s bad! Nobody has money. What’s going on Shap Shap??? Why is it so tight ?
However, it seems that some people in the comments section believed that the aspiring first-ever local Hip-Hop billionaire was immune to the rising cost of living and the implications of loadshedding to businesses and productivity.
Moreover, it was highlighted that his suggested net worth meant that he was somewhat immune to the rising cost of living. But Cassper then explained that there was a difference between net worth and cash flow. More so given the cost for him to maintain the type of lifestyle he has accrued and created for himself.
I’m going through it myself. It’s tough man. Like I feel only the billionaires are living soft cause jo ya kena ya tswa. Everything is just expensive! Water electricity, food, Petrol, security, rent , tax. Bro I’m not making enough money. I’m always stressed about the next month. https://t.co/nj3pQxCUUR
Cassper highlighting the matter of having to pay for security came even before the matter of the assassination of AKA. Instead, it was the surprising and still unsolved murder case of friend and former collaborator DJ Sumbody that impressed on Mufasa to get actual security.
Cassper told the blog how he found pictures of DJ Sumbody's lifeless body traumatising. He said he refused to look at the pictures any longer as he did not want that to be the last memory he has of the Monate Mpolaye hitmaker.
Cassper said he has been ignorant for a long time and let his guard down when it came to security when he is out in public.
“It’s not safe, man. I have been ignorant for a very long time and DJ Sumbody’s death woke me and made me realise that we are not safe. His death really f**ked me up,” he told the blog. “I am always walking around with expensive jewellery. I can’t afford to put my life at risk and tempt people."
Cassper said he is a big deal so he cannot live his life like an ordinary citizen.
