Emtee's video sparks mixed reactions from social media users

The Logan rapper charted social media trends when a video of his altercation with his pregnant baby mama went viral. In the video, the heavily pregnant baby mama accused the rapper of beating her while pregnant.

She even showed a picture of her bruised face. Many fans referred to the GBV claims after watching Emtee's video. Some said he should not be celebrated because of the accusations, while others said his private life shouldn't affect his career.

@Elvishonz said:

"An alleged abuser, in SA ya’ll have serious classism."

In more entertainment news, Briefly News reported that Emtee had been arrested after his seven-month-pregnant wife, Nicole Chinsamy, exposed his abusive ways on social media.

Nicole levelled the allegations in the rapper's Instagram live stream and had pictures to prove it, but Emtee quickly panned the camera away from her. The suspicious behaviour convinced everyone that the Roll Up rapper was guilty, and peeps dragged him.

According to City Press, after Emtee faced heavy backlash for the GBV claims from Nicole, he handed himself to the police. A police spokesperson, Mavela Masondo, claimed he was charged with assault and will appear in court soon.
