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.

According to TimesLIVE, the rapper was referring to the SAMPRA Artist of the Year category that disappointed many. Reason took to his Twitter to say music bodies should work with the likes of DJ Maphosrisa to avoid embarrassment.
