SA split over Euphonik's confidence in Cassper Nyovest

Online users flooded the comments on the post, and many disagreed as they reflected on Cass's beef with AKA. Some peeps agreed that Casper Nyovest made the biggest impact.

@mikezwini87 shared their two cents:

"Nothing but the truth. Before Cass, SA hip hop wasn't making money. The rappers were talented but poor, Cass paved the way, and we started to see rich rappers. Facts."

@Sekzin_sa said:

"Gents were just rapping but Cassper saw the bigger picture and brought it to life! Unfortunately this is Twitter, they’ll never agree with you."

@IMatterthereal agreed:

"No disrespect intended but this right here is actually the truth. Cassper came into the game and literally took the lead. He basically changed the manner in which we used to view hip hop ."

Netizens named others representing KO, ProKid and HHP as artists who paved the way for hip-hop in SA.

@Lvzolv disagreed:

"You are lying! AKA is gone and Cass doesn't hsve reach like he used to. Remember when he'd get his PR by taunting AKA?! Remember AKA in the SAMAs and Metros where he was the one repping SA hip hop with Altar Ego... All I Know?"

@Zweli_Thixo argued:

"So much disrespect to AKA, KO, Pro and HHP. You should be telling us, ngeVisit ka Diddy eMzansi nokuthi wabhebha bani."

@favoritehun was not convinced by Euphonik:

"Lol, you must be delusional. Cassper has been a nobody since AKA died."

@REECECENTRE added:

"It can't be the same AKA who was going pound for pound against Zahara at the 2011 Metro and SAMA awards..."

"AKA was an award-winning artist in 2011/12, way before Cassper blew up. Actually, AKA did Cassper’s career a favour, and it’s evident today because he’s not sure whether to be a gospel artist, a pastor, etc."
