Top Mzansi rapper and Amapiano star Sizwe Alakine also known as Reason, has taken to social media to call upon South African music bodies to work with the younger generations of artists.

Reason's plea comes following the South Africa Music Awards that caused a stir on social media. Many people said the award ceremony, which was hosted by Lawrence Maleka and Nandi Madida, was a flop. The event, which was returning after a two-year break, failed to live up to Mzansi's expectations despite being held on two separate days.
