A-Reece lauds Nasty C following album release
Just recently, A-Reece lauded his fellow rapper Nasty C and gave him his much-deserved praise. This sparked collaboration requests from fans.
A-Reece tweeted and deleted that Nasty C is better than Central Cee. However, the tweet did not get a response from Nasty C.
Nasty C recently said he is the best rapper in Africa and that he could not mention a rival. The only rapper he recognises as his equal is J Cole.
"I'm not saying I'm the best rapper in South Africa but I've never met someone who made me go 'Yho, let me take this L!' "
"In the world, because of where I am right now and the way I write, I have to say J. Cole and I have to say Jay-Z. The way they write is so insane, it's never been so direct but at the same time, so colourful and multi-layered."
