Earlier, Briefly News reported that the crew members of the MacG podcast have shafted their thoughts about AKA’s return to the stage.
They believe that the rapper returned prematurely to performing, given the extent of the tragedy he suffered.
Speaking on the podcast, Sol Phenduka said:
“I think AKA shouldn’t have performed. I think the whole thing was triggered by him performing at the Nedbank Cup Final. He shouldn’t have performed, you just lost your partner… I know a bag is a bag is a bag but AKA has been relevant for so many years, I’m pretty sure he can… if he needs to forfeit… I mean Nedbank it’s not like they’re tone deaf they saw what happened to him, They’ll understand him pulling out.“
