Ms Cosmo wants A-Reece to do more

In other music news, Briefly News reported that Ms Cosmo wants rapper A-Reece to do more instead of just releasing music and disappearing. The hip-hop DJ shared her thoughts on the way the rapper handles himself during the recent episode of her POPradio.

The 5FM radio presenter feels that the Zimbali hitmaker is not leveraging on his fan base. The star has a loyal following on social media. A-Reece trends whenever another Mzansi rapper drops a project.

Ms Cosmo advised A-Reece to stop dropping music and go away. She wants him to go all out and market his music, do live performances at festivals and clubs.
