It was bound to happen at some point, no one was sure when but everyone who knows DJ Maphorisa and Prince Kaybee has been anticipating the day they re-ignite their beef again. It seems for quite some time, they have been sub-Tweeting each other and avoiding direct conflict but there has never been peace.
This morning, DJ Maphorisa started with a simple Tweet, trying to find out how Prince Kaybee's Project Hope was. Since Prince Kaybee announced the release of the project in the early hours of the morning, everyone woke up to the excitement of new music.
"My problem with Princess he doesn’t want to give Credit to the Kids. We need grow them n make them feel special, especially when u take something from them the reason why i have a strong team,I make sure we win together n credit them well. Fuck my english aslong u get my point"
Maphorisa however, wasn't really impressed by Prince Kaybee and his treatment of artists who work on his songs, he then proceeded to compliment, or in his own special way, shade Prince Kaybee for finally joining the Amapiano craze. This came as a surprise to many, especially after the comments that Prince Kaybee made about Ampaiano back in June.
"Imagine an album that has the same beat through out, literally every song sounds the same. Try making an album over a longer period of time to avoid sounding the same, the mind needs to rest for new ideas."
His comments came after Kabza De Small released his Amapiano music and Maphorisa quickly assumed he was dragging his buddy Kabza. It was rather surprising for Maphorisa to discover that his nemesis actually produced a YANOS track on the Project Hope album.
Prince Kaybee started this project with the intention of creating a platform for aspiring singers to showcase their vocal abilities to a wider audience. The album has been curated for the young women to have an opportunity to break into the difficult music industry and showcase their talents. Already, his girls are getting booked and Tweeps loved the album.
“Listen I AM PROUD. 3 of the #ProjectHope ladies bagged their first gig, the album is not even out yet. Babies are performing at the Arts Alive Fest TODAY. Please help me congratulate them.”
It seems Prince Kaybee isn't exploiting his artists, as Maphorisa alleges, in fact, they are thriving. It might be that Maphorisa is jealous and couldn't just celebrate Prince Kaybee's good work.
