South African amapiano musician Boohle was a trending topic after screenshots from a WhatsApp conversation between her manager and an event promoter went viral.

In the pictures, a promoter wanted to know if Boohle would be available for a performance in Mildersdrift in September 2026. After being ignored for a while, the manager was quoted R80,000, but disputed this as he was previously told to pay R30,000.

In a series of messages, Boohle's manager, who identified himself as Rock, gave cheeky responses to the questions asked by the promoter.

SA debates Boohle's manager's behaviour

Mzansi reacted to Boohle's manager's response, saying he is hurting Boohle's chances of securing more bookings if this conversation is real and if he might be speaking like this with other promoters.

Below are some of the reactions from online users:

@TheAudioLabSA reacted:

"Sometimes the biggest challenge for an artist isn’t competition, but the people handling the business around them. There have been growing conversations about how difficult it is to work through Rocksolid when trying to book @BoohleSA, with some people feeling the communication and professionalism could be handled much better."

The X post continues, "A manager is supposed to make business easier, build strong relationships, and create opportunities for the artist not to become part of the frustration. Also, there needs to be clarity on roles. Is Rocksolid fully focused on being Boohle’s manager, or is he focused on his own DJ career? Trying to balance both is possible, but only when it doesn’t blur priorities or create unnecessary tension around the artist’s brand and bookings."

"You cannot be managed by someone trying to make it in the industry as well. Managers have to stay in the background and play their role."

@MatlhogonoloOr1 replied:

"Lol, the manager is rude. If I were her, I’d fire him immediately. clearly he’s done this before and left offers out of arrogance."

@Mr_Diabolical_ defended the manager:

"This is bs, how is the broer supposed to respond?? Beg people to book boohle?? Nah man. He is doing an amazing job."
