Nasty C encouraged his fans to buy tickets for his Ivyson tour, which will take place on 7 December 2024 in Johannesburg. He shared this message in Sesotho.
The interview that sparked it all
It all started during an interview when Naledi Mallela, a TV host and YouTuber, had Nasty C and rapper Cassper Nyovest for their much-talked-about African Throne Tour. While she tried to explain something in Sesotho to Nasty C, he quickly admitted that he didn’t "understand the language." This caught both Naledi and Cassper by surprise. But he mentioned he knows a couple of Sotho phrases, like "ke rata modimo," which translates to I love God, and "ke batla ho robala," meaning I want to sleep.
The Phases rapper hopped on Instagram to remind everyone about his tour next month.

Charlize Theron's remarks about Afrikaans irks SA authorities
In relevant news, Briefly News, it was reported the Pan South African Language Board (PanSALB) has reacted to Charlize Theron's remarks about her mother tongue. In a recent interview, the South African-born Hollywood superstar claimed Afrikaans is a dying language.
The actress' comments did not sit well with PanSALB. In a statement reacting to her comments claiming that about only 44 people speak the language in Mzansi, the board cited a report by the Stats South Africa Community Survey of 2018.
