• Reason has responded to a troll who dragged him for taking part in MTV's Amapiano Hip Hop Cypher recently
• The reason the hater called Reason out is because he has jumped on the Amapiano bandwagon and feels that the name of the cypher disrespected real hip-hop
• Reason shared that he's not the one who came with the show's name and told the fan to listen to his bars instead of dragging him for the name of the show

Reason has reacted to the hate he received from a troll after performing at the Amapiano Hip Hop Cypher recently. The rapper who recently switched to Amapiano was invited at the MTV Base show to spit some bars during the show.

As it was expected of him, he killed his verse, according to some fans who watched the show. But one hater was not impressed the star took part in the event. The troll accused the Khanda Shisa hitmaker of disrespecting the hip-hop culture by participating in the cypher.

Reason, who now goes by the name Sizwe Alakine, told the fan that he didn't choose the name of the programme and he would not stop availing himself if he's called again. Taking to Twitter, Reason responded to the unimpressed tweep:

"Honestly, I didn’t know it would be called that. But I also don’t understand why you would want to crucify ME for it being called that. I’m not @MTVBaseSouth. I did what I’ve always done. Which is to rap on their cyphers. Don’t involve me in anything else. But the quality of rap," he said, according to TshisaLIVE.
