Rea Gopane and Blvck Steph are known for their controversial opinions on their ‘Everything SA Music’ podcast on Youtube. Recently one half of the duo questioned the authenticity of AKA’s Platinum for his song ‘Lemons (Lemonade)’ which features Nasty C. The podcaster questioned if the plaque was produced by AKA’s label or was recognized by RISA( Recording Industry of South Africa). His reason for this was that the plaque does not bear the RISA on it and must have been fabricated by AKA’s label.
“So if there is no RISA on the plaque then that means it’s all cap, Lemons (Lemonade) didn’t go platinum. So if RISA didn’t approve it then it’s a rushed job from the label,” he added. Blvck Steph also speculated that the whole point of having Lemons (Lemonade) certified platinum was a strategy in place for the song to compete with K.O’s SETE on the charts.
“So what I also heard is that they rushed the job because they wanted to compete with Sete because at that point Sete you see a couple of days after Sete was announced double platinum that’s when Lemons (Lemonade) also announced,” he said.
AKA just followed up ‘Lemons’ which acted as the lead single to his upcoming fourth album ‘Mass Country,’ with a second single titled ‘Paradise’ featuring Musa Keys and Gyakie and the rapper will be looking forward to its success on the music charts.

Many fans would know Ntukza from his role as a member of the legendary South African hip hop/kwaito trio Teargas, alongside Ma-E and K.O. The younger generation might know the veteran from his recent feud with former Teargas member and friend K.O. While fans have been incessantly calling for a Teargas comeback album or concert or at least a collaboration between Ntukza and K.O, the former has decided to instead put out solo work now that his name is ringing in the industry again.
Ntukza had gone on Twitter to announce an EP titled ‘Shalom’ to be released before the end of the year much to the excitement of his and Teargas fans.

“There’s quite a demand for me to release music now so I thought, I might as well without feeling any pressure. I’m always on studio anyway. Stay ready so you don’t have to be ready,”

Most rap fans knew Nasty C from the ‘Juice Back Remix’ single featuring Cassper Nyovest and Nigerian Afrobeats giant Davido., however Tsibip was not the first A-List rapper to give Nasty a Co-sign. AKA ad already predicted that the young Durban native would one day take over the SA rap game, as far back as 2014. Most fans know how much Nasty adores AKA and K.O. The ‘Hell Naw’ rapper took to his Instagram to drop a list of five emcees that are his favorite in SA hip hop history, to make up for the highly debated list he gave at his SA Hip Hop Mag interview.
In an interview with SA Hip Hop Mag, the rapper shared the SA rappers he looks up to. “This is purely based off the people I grew up on and the people that when they drop songs I listen to them and go, ‘F***, I need to go back and write’. It’s people like AKA, of course. Maggz, at a point. Definitely Proverb, 100%. There was a point where I was listening to a lot of Mr Selwyn, I don’t know what happened to him. And K.O. has to be there, for sure.”
In his first list, Nasty C did not include Cassper Nyovest and when he was asked the reason, he said; “Never really been in my top 5 rappers, but like, as a musician, he’s definitely up there. Musician, businessman, definitely up there.”
The new and updated list includes Cassper and Da L.E.S who is not much of a surprise as he is one of the earliest pioneers of English rap in the modern era of SA hip hop.
Frequent collaborator and legend Stogie T made the list, alongside AKA and K.O which Nasty has been shouting out as his inspiration since his ‘Price City mixtape’ days.
