Zingah addresses AKA's "sympathy streams"

Nearly two years after AKA's tragic murder, his legacy is still upheld with the growing success of his music and an army of supporters who continue to celebrate his life.

However, it has been argued that what we're seeing is nothing more than sympathy streams and not genuine support from fans and peers alike, more so regarding the rapper's posthumous album, Mass Country.

Critics claim that had Supa Mega been alive; his music would not have seen the success that it did. Now, having earned several plaques and countless awards, peeps argued that this wouldn't have happened had he been around.

Former Cashtime Life member, Zingah entered the chat with an opposing argument, claiming that the album held enough weight to reach the level of success that it did, even greater, despite the tragic circumstances surrounding its release.
