Popular rapper Fifi Cooper received backlash for posting a photo of herself at Presley Chweneyagae's graveyard over the weekend.

The multi-talented actor, who was buried on Saturday, 7 June in Pretoria topped Twitter trends when his coffin got jammed while being lowered.

Social media user @literallysk shared a photo on X of the rapper next to Chweneyagae's graveyard on Monday, 9 June.

Cooper recently attended Chweneyagae's first memorial service in Mahikeng, North West province, and honoured him.

The rapper also recently made headlines when she defended herself against singer Naledi Aphiwe, who accused her of stealing her iPhone.

South Africans predict the musician, who currently works on radio is seeking attention from the media and social media.

"Yup, this is the last resort to a failing career. This is unnecessary attention seeking," said one social media user on X.

Cooper shared several photos of Chweneyagae's graveyard on her Facebook account on Monday, 9 June, and captioned the post:

"What a crazy week. Till we meet again grootman," (big man).
