Tweeps are not happy with the way Jub Jub and his crew invaded the woman’s privacy and how he spoke to her. Some people have found it very disturbing that the woman in the episode was filmed while she was half-dressed and Jub Jub didn’t have the decency to look away. The woman even had to cover herself up with a blanket.

Jub Jub is no stranger to drama. Not so long ago he was involved in a social media spat with radio and television personality Lerato Kganyago. Kganyago was responding to Molemo’s post and said that his generalisations can be problematic.

"I'm an artist and I'm saying your generalisation is problematic. Some of us have been speaking you are sending out the wrong message my brother with all due respect. Some of us are just as frustrated, ben upset for many just in case you think the looting by government started 4 months ago.” She said.

"This is a result of what has been happening for the past couple of years, from one prisoner to another, let's not have selective outrage. The GUPTAS let's start unpacking from the root of the problem till today, even before them, there has been looting of funds. Others hopped from one political party to another after looting. Let’s speak to our people but with honesty!"

Jub wasn’t going to let LKG’s words slide and told her that she is entitled to her own opinions.  "This is what bores me...who appointed you as the minister of the right messages of SA? With all due respect, you are entitled to your own opinion, AS I AM TO MINE. We shouldn't be sitting here debating. The country is burning, the poor have been disenfranchised for too long in this country and it's easy for someone to say violence this, violence that when they don't know their day to day pain.”

He added that he was addressing privileged people who think that they are in a position to talk about the poor. "I'm not here to talk politics nama Guptas that I don't know of, I am talking about people who think they have the right to judge the poor based on their position of privilege. Nobody is saying looting and the destruction of property is right. The wrongness of it goes without saying. What I was talking to is a response of the clever blacks to the plight of the poor in this country. If you do not fall within that spectrum then this live did not apply to you.” Said the musician in part.
