Kabza speaks on Malinga after being accused of being Phori's lapdog, SA reacts

Briefly News previously reported Kabza De Small has opened up about allegedly being DJ Maphorisa's lapdog. The Amapiano producer is accused of not wanting to release a track he did with trouble singer Dr Malinga because he's apparently scared of Phori.

In a clip doing the rounds on social media, Kabza rubbished the allegations. He was reacting to people who want him to drop the song as a way of doing his bit to help Dr Malinga.

Dr Malinga told MacG in an interview that he suspects DJ Maphorisa influenced Kabza not to drop the single. Phori and Malinga are apparently beefing over a song they did years ago titled Via Orlando.
