ZintleZeeBBMS4 offered some context, noting that Mpumelelo's build plays into the optics"

"Mpumelelo will look like a little boy next to all his women because his type is plus-sized women. To be honest, he will look like a little boy next to everyone, 'cause look how he looks next to Jakalasi and next to his dad."
