It is alleged that Uncle Waffles is suing Thakgi from Music Pulse, formerly Piano Pulse, over the remarks he made during this week's episode.

The lawsuit was revealed by MacG on Podcast And Chill, where he called the letter of demand a love letter.

Why is Uncle Waffles suing Thakgi?

In a viral video, Thakgi claimed that Uncle Waffles was booked for a festival in Cape Town, where she asked Wadibusa collaborator, Sage, to be part of the performance.

He claims that Waffles was paid nothing less than £70,000, just like any other artist who was booked for a performance. However, Thakgi alleged that Waffles paid the singer R15000, including an all-expenses-paid trip to the Mother City.

Mzansi reacts to Uncle Waffles suing Thakgi

Social media users responded to the X post, questioning the probability of Waffles winning the lawsuit.

Below are some of the reactions:

@Joyfield16 said:

"Lol. Some don't watch the show. People are making money reacting to the podcasts. So obviously, the clips are everywhere. Tiktok, Twitter, Facebook. I don't watch Music Pulse, but I've seen the clips."

@Tb0Touch stated:

"If Waffle the superstar got £70k, you also want £70? He was offered 15K; if it wasn’t enough, he was supposed to say and not perform. That’s that on that."

@MogolwaneMaatla asked:

"If she is suing him, is she saying the event never happened cause Thakgi said he got receipts, and the guy can even confirm it for him. What is she suing for exactly?"

@SK_Fuzair reacted:

"I'm happy this guy made it in life. I don't know where he would be without this. He is highly unlikable."

@XEY2424 shared:

"Uncle Wiffles needs to take a break and leave Thakgi alone. There’s no way Shes going to win this one."
