Netizens react to Phori's revelation

Shortly after the videos of the star explaining his dislikes for awards went viral on social media, many netizens flooded the comment section with their reactions. See some of the responses below:

@Kane_GM9 said:

"The sooner he realise he's only popular in his own head and in Hammanskraal where he comes from the better, you can't be this bitter."

@Moshe_Meso commented:

"Every year, they act like they don't care about these awards, but spark range when they don't win. You can pay to farm music streams all you want, but in the end, real talent always wins."

@EvansMathibe responded:

"Look, DJ Maphorisa's got a point! Yeah, he's another Amapiano diva, same league as Scott Maphuma, but those Metro FM Music Awards have just fallen off hard. By 2025, they honestly feel like some local community talent thing award, and everyone is in a matric dance outfit. Maphorisa, as a brand, is way bigger than that entire award show anyway, so yeah, he's right about that. Plus, there's some radio drama involving him that he's keeping quiet about. So in his famous words....Gao kgonogale."

@madibatingo replied:

"I agree. All the so-called voting competitions in South Africa are a scam. You can vote a thousand times, but if they have decided who should win, there's absolutely nothing one can do. Remember, Metro awarded song of the year last year?"

"This reminds me of that Kanye West speech when he said he hated award shows cause they gather a bunch of winners together just to allow them to be called losers..."

New date added for Kelvin Momo Red Bull Symphonic

Briefly News previously reported that there was a high demand for Kelvin Momo's Red Bull Symphonic. After the Private School Amapiano muso's fans raced against the clock to purchase tickets for 6 and 7 June, Red Bull South Africa announced that they added another date.

The Sukakude hitmaker is teaming up with Adam Howard and the Egoli Symphonic Orchestra to give fans a three-day affair of nothing but quality Amapiano. The show will be taking place at The Teatro in Montecasino, Johannesburg. Fans are not happy with the crashed website, and they are fuming. Some are even blaming Kelvin Momo.
