Cassper Nyovest Responds To AKA’s GOAT List
You may recall Cassper’s verse on ‘Phumakim’ where the rapper humorously says: “AKA’s favourite rapper, I guess I made it on the Forbes List.”
Well Cassper’s induction, along with 9 other rappers into the Forbes list was made official over the weekend and touched a few nerves.
TOP 10 SA HIP HOP GOAT LIST 🐐… PRO, AKA, KO, TUMI, KWESTA. NASTY C. HHP. KHULI CHANA. JR. And that other fuckin’ guy …. In that order.

Whether AKA intended for that to happen or not, ranking Cassper Nyovest at the bottom or even adding him to the list got many talking; including Mufasa himself.
However, his subtle response revealed that he is on a different lane and on his way to achieving bigger things than being on ‘some list’. Not to mention Supa Mega’s lack of respect when mentioning Casspers name, “that other f***in guy” – that was enough for Cass to just mind his own booming business and switch to better lanes.
Notice how i been minding my booming business. Ke shapo le tse baya hey. Not even in my own lane anymore, im creating a new one. Tryna go for SA Hip Hop's first Billionaire. Dreaming big!!!

Fans came to show the rapper support and encouraged him to keep on flourishing and break boundaries. One AKA fan, Scoop Makhathini also showed some support in a twitter thread.
In one of the tweets he wrote: “Forever you have changed the game. Forever your contribution and your work will never go unrecognized. Even with this piano/hip hop wave you were the first. When most did not see it.”
What a perfect way to mize the negativity!
