Does this mean Cassper really hated AKA?

Following the interview, Mzansi had mixed reactions regarding AKA and Cassper's beef.

Shaun said Cassper Nyovest has fake love for AKA because of Major Steez's claims.

"We need to be honest about Cassper’s fake love for AKA. I mean, this guy cut off Major Steez just because they made a song with Kiernan, clearly he doesn’t f*** with him at all."

Mzansi weighs in on the debate

When AKA passed away, Cassper Nyovest visited his home in Bryanston to pay his respects to the Forbes family. He apparently told the family that their beef was exaggerated to be more than what it really was.

Many thought their beef was faked so they could benefit from it. But after Major Steez's interview, the sentiments seem to have changed.

"I don't think he cares about AKA or how you feel about him, anyway I'm still his fan you."

@Nellyzul66 asked:

"Question is, did AKA love him?"

@Ktb_youngboy said:

"Cassper Nyovest just solidified his spot as the worst rapper in SA Hip Hop. Using a dead man for clicks, profit and PR. This is absolutely shameless and disgusting. Keep Kiernan name out your f*** mouth. And drop that garbage that only you and your brainless fans care for."

@Jethroimbongi said:

"This guy’s boring. It’d be much better if he doesn’t talk about Mega, no need to tell lies."
