Mzansi woke up to fresh celeb drama as poet and activist Ntsiki Mazwai and music executive Nota Baloyi traded blows on X.
The spat kicked off under a post where Nota appeared to endorse that Euphonik "must finish her" and calling her "satanic."
Ntsiki, who previously said that she would never date Nota, fired back, suggesting this attitude explained why his ex-wife Berita ended their marriage.
Nota, who was recently roasted after sharing a thirst trap, didn't hold back, hitting below the belt with claims that no man has ever truly chosen Ntsiki or her siblings, adding that it speaks volumes when "3/3 can't find a man that loves them."

A history of ups and downs fuels the fire
This isn't the first rodeo for Ntsiki and Nota.
The pair have clashed publicly for years over various issues, from industry politics to personal digs.
But in May 2025, they shocked fans by reconciling during a sit-down interview, putting past beef behind them.
Things seemed solid when Nota supported Ntsiki in November 2025 during her defamation case against DJ Euphonik, solidifying their unexpected alliance.
By December, however, romance rumours swirled as fans teased they'd make a cute couple. These rumours were shut down by Ntsiki, calling Nota "extremely immature" and not her type.
Ntsiki, known for her unfiltered takes on feminism and culture, has faced backlash before for her views.
Nota, fresh from his high-profile divorce from singer Berita amid abuse allegations, often stirs controversy with his outspoken opinions on relationships and the industry.
Mzansi weighs in with humour and speculation
Social media lit up as users reposted the screenshots, with many poking fun at the duo's dynamic.
One user, @harleymamly, referenced the duo's on-and-off relationship saying:
"Yoh, ya ba o ka se tsene [don't meddle in this two's issues]. They know a lot about each other."
Another user, @katlegomdouva, marvelled at their renewed beef, typing:
"Blow after blow."
@ZinziZolz revived the romance talk, stating:
"Mina ngibona ngathi bafanelene [I personally think they's make a cute couple]."
@GlitEdgee echoed the sentiment above, commenting:
"These two can make a great couple."

Nota Baloyi shares reason behind fallout with Ntsiki Mazwai
Nota Baloyi told Briefly News that no reconciliation ever happened between him and Ntsiki Mazwai. he said that they linked up because she wanted to make content.
Nota shared that he launched personal attacks on Ntsiki because of her criticism of the celebrities who assisted iShowSpeed during his stream in Johannesburg. He said that he would no longer be associating with Ntsiki Mazwai.
"No reconciliation that ever happened. She needed me for content, and I obliged, as I oblige with many other content creators, and that was that. As for her actions beyond that and her criticism, especially of the people that were assisting Speed and his team to put together the Joburg stream, I felt that her character is lacking, and therefore I shall be removing myself from any further engagements with someone of such, I guess, someone mean-spirited. I don't think that her heart is in the right place, and I think that she's vengeful and vindictive and driven by that rather than any good intentions," Nota Baloyi explained.
Nota Baloyi questions Julius Malema's lifestyle
Not one to shy away from making his opinions known, Nota crossed lanes from his mainstream industry of entertainment into the political arena when he questioned the lifestyle of EFF leader Julius Malema.
In an unrelated report, Briefly News previously published that Nota questioned how Julius Malema could afford a lavish lifestyle despite leading a party with fewer votes than the DA.
