Big Xhosa took to Twitter on Sunday, 9 May to share his thoughts on Emtee's reaction to the diss track. Big Xhosa tried to be nice to Emtee, saying that the Hustla's music got him through "some worst times". Xhosa tweeted:
"Jonga Emtee @emteerecords I heard what you said about me on that live, calling me a mentally disturbed person... I wanted to tell you something disrespectful back but remembered that your music has gotten me through some worst times in my life. I only got love and respect for you."
Emtee, who is known for not mincing his words, was not having it. According to ZAlebs, he first swore at the aspiring rapper and then told him to respect Mzansi hip-hop. Big Xhosa then said it was "just a game" which rubbed Emtee the wrong way. He responded:
"Game yamas**ba. Zizama ukondla abantwana bethu niyas’nyela (A sh*tty game. We are trying to feed our kids but y'all are disrespecting us). RESPECT SOUTH AFRICAN HIP HOP. Ungazonya la and call it a game. This is our bread and butter. Niyanya nonke nje awekho wonke lamasimba eniwenzayo. Khulani bafana. Yekani ukunya (All of you are just sh*tting around. The sh*t you guys are doing is not on, grow up) Wena Big Xhosa. Let that be the last."

In related news, Briefly News reported that an upcoming Mzansi rapper dropped a new track dissing all famous Mzansi rappers except AKA. Big Xhosa took shots at Nasty C, Cassper Nyovest, A-Reece, Stogie T, Kwesta and many others. Big Xhosa trended on social media at the weekend after his video went viral.
The rapper sampled 2 Pac in his impromptu track titled Ninyile. He dissed Mufasa for his goat-like beard, slammed Nasty C for always rapping in English and called A-Reece baby girl. He also said he's not scared of all the rappers except Big Zulu.
Big Xhosa had lunch with music executive Nota Baloyi after trending on Twitter. A fan asked Nota to ask Big Xhosa why he did not go after AKA. In the clip posted by Nota, Big Xhosa explained that he didn't diss Supa Mega because he is still mourning the untimely death of Nelli Tembe.
