"KO & BIG ZULU pretty much cater to the 'same' market. Both of them are Zulu rappers. Both of them rap their a**es off when they feel like it. Both of them are killing the radio charts too. And both of them are top of mind artists RIGHT NOW. It’s now a matter of styles."

Local hip-hop heads took to Reason's comment section and shared mixed reactions to his opinion:

"Y’all disrespect KO unprovoked on this APP! Same market njani sbali when Big Zulu appeals more to amabhinca who are fiercely LOYAL to their artists. Of course he will sell and top charts as long as he appeals to them. KO makes very good music nje in general, no limits!"

@iamRTI commented:

"K.O is not a Zulu rapper, don't box him. He's versatile, he can eat up any rapper vernac or not."

@TeeTouchza added:

"K.O and Big Zulu definitely don't cater to the same market, I refuse. K.O is more English rap based than Zulu."
