What happened between DJ Maphorisa and Samthing Soweto?

The two had a fall out after Maphorisa was accused of exploiting Samthing Soweto in 2024.
Along with Mas Musiq, the Blaq Boy Entertainment boss was also accused of swindling Samthing Soweto out of his royalties after his vocals were used for their song Amalanga Awafani without crediting or paying him.
Reacting to the foul comments in a now-famous rant on 3 September 2024, Porry accused Samthing Soweto of being greedy and wanting song royalties for himself despite collaborating with other artists.
