While the picture itself was not out of the ordinary, it was his choice of song that left many social media users in disbelief. AKA chose to play ‘Piss on your grave’ by Travis Scott.

Many were disturbed by the fact that the song seemed to be alluding to the death of the late Tembe and felt that it was in poor taste. AKA did not specify why he chose that particular song but it did not stop the masses from assuming the worst.

“The song selection.”

“Last time I checked this song is about pissing on the graves of unscrupulous record label execs. Kiernan has been a victim of such ppl for most of his career. What’s the furore about?”

“Every time you think it’s the bottom the bottom keeps on getting lower.”

@anie_nxusa said:

“This is low, even for him.”

@just_rabo said:
