South African hip-hop heavyweight Cassper Nyovest is no stranger to online spats—and once again, he’s trending for all the right reasons. The award-winning rapper recently found himself in the middle of a Twitter storm after a user claimed his music career ended following the death of his longtime rival, AKA (Kiernan Forbes).
The bold and controversial tweet read: “You are irrelevant. Supa Mega passed on with your career.”
The statement was a direct jab referencing the tragic passing of AKA, who was fatally shot outside a restaurant in Durban in February 2023. The user insinuated that Cassper’s musical relevance died alongside AKA, a claim that didn’t sit well with Nyovest—or his fans.
