Cassper Nyovest has entered the conversation surrounding Sol Phenduka and MacG's controversial joke about a missing woman, and he is not holding back. The rapper took to X on Wednesday, 16 September 2026, to publicly condemn the Podcast and Chill hosts after a clip from the show resurfaced in the worst possible circumstances.

During a recording of Podcast and Chill, Sol Phenduka and MacG discussed a woman who had been reported missing, with the pair laughing and joking about the situation. By the time the clip began circulating online, Elizabeth Ntsontso, identified as a runner and mother of an eight-year-old, had been found dead in Kempton Park. What had passed as edgy banter during recording became deeply difficult to justify once the full picture emerged.
