Cassper surprised many when he was announced as the new host of The Braai Show. The SABC 1 show used to be hosted by his arch-rival in hip-hop, AKA. The second season of the programme saw Mufasa host Mzansi celebs in his luxurious mansion.
The star invited the likes of Mihlali Ndamase, Makhadzi, Kamo Mphela and Lehau Sehoana, among others. It was the first time he bagged a TV presenting gig and most of his fans agreed that he did a great job as the show's episodes trended on social media when he was the host.
3. Mufasa drops adult beverage
Just as when Mzansi thought Cassper was done for the year, the star introduced his alcohol brand, Billiato. He said the adult beverage would launch this December. Mufasa said the lux drink was for people just like him.
The musician sent the timeline into a frenzy when he announced the new business venture. In an interview, he said a popular "alcohol guru" approached him to embark on this venture.

Mufasa bragged that he bought the expensive watch because his fave soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo owns one. A Franck Muller watch costs from R150 000 to R350 000 in Mzansi but Cassper's one is more expensive because it has been custom-designed.
The Siyathandana hitmaker's watch has been diamond-encrusted by Diamond Channel. Cassper Nyovest took to Instagram on Tuesday, 14 December to flex it.
"I honestly just bought a Franck Muller cause Cristiano Ronaldo wears a Frank Muller. CR7!!! THIS ONE IS FOR YOU!!!! Shout out to @the_watch_channelsa and @the_diamond_channel for making my birthday special this year. #frankmuller."
