Prince Kaybee drags DJ Maphorisa over Sir Trill

In July 2024, Prince Kaybee previously dragged DJ Maphorisa following Sir Trill’s allegations.

Maphorisa had hopped onto social media and released evidence proving that he had paid Sir Trill despite what he had claimed.

While providing proof, and in true Maphorisa's nature, the versatile producer hit out at L-Tido, seemingly for giving Trill a platform to make him look bad. Prince Kaybee then joined the conversation and gave Porry the same energy and a telling-off.

The Club Controlla hitmaker ordered DJ Maphorisa to stop bullying people who had done nothing to him.

Prince Kaybee blasts DJ Maphorisa over his photo

In February 2024, Briefly News reported that Prince Kaybee fired back at DJ Maphorisa after he called him an adult film star.

The issue started after Kaybee shared a photo showing the results of his fasting and training regimen.

Instead of ignoring or admiring, popular social media troll Chris Excel posted a video of Porry throwing shade at Kaybee, calling him names, and shaming his video with Cyan Boujee.
