A-Reece began another online debate that had the social media streets ablaze. The rapper posted a lyric from Ghanaian rapper M.anifest's Scorpion Flow single where he declares himself the only rapper in Africa.
Like many online users who post song lyrics, Reece did not insert quotation marks, making the lyric more of a statement that had the Twitter (X) space going crazy.
A-Reece declares himself the only African rapper
In a Twitter post, A-Reece posted a lyric from Ghanaian emcee, M.anifest's 2021 single, Scorpion Flow. The song is a bar parade where the Ghanaian superstar raps non-stop for just shy of three minutes.

The statement is made at the very end of the song where the Tomorrow hitmaker declares himself as the only emcee in Africa that he recognises:
"Only two rappers I know in Africa, me and nobody in particular."
The two emcees previously went head-to-head in the 2022 Hennessy Cypher along with fellow rappers M.I Abaga, Octopizzo and Vector.
One can imagine just how a bold statement such as this can ruffle some feathers in the rap community. Reece has been known to make similar declarations and make an exit, leaving Twitter heated up in a debate as his fans back his bold claims.
Slimes speak up for A-Reece
Sure enough, the Slimes supported A-Reece's lyric that's masked as a statement.
The fan base is by far the most loyal and brutal in the South African music industry and is always quick to defend Reece and sing his praises:
Other music heads weren't as moved by Reece's tweet and tore his statement apart, with some pinning him up against Nasty C, who is currently touring the continent:
