Kabza De Small, DJ Maphorisa under fire

-

JOHANNESBU­RG Scores of artists, musicians, personalit­ies and creatives have been lambasted for showing zero support towards the Forbes family following AKA’s passing. Kiernan ‘AKA’ Forbes was laid to rest Saturday and his fans are still fighting tooth and nail with those who skipped his funeral.

Kabza De Small and DJ Maphorisa are the last but certainly not the least of celebritie­s to be called out for blue ticking AKA’s passing. Tweeps could not come to terms with how noticeable it was for certain celebritie­s that did not extend their condolence­s nor paid their last respect to AKA.

Tweeps have joined hands and collective­ly lambasted Kabza De Small and DJ Maphorisa for pulling a missing in action at AKA’s funeral. The pair could not even post on their social media and convey their condolence­s to the Forbes family.

“Kabza and Maphorisa can v***tek

The way we support these dudes as a country but they couldn’t even show some love for AKA.” wrote Spho Cooks

Instead Kabza De Small was sharing videos on social media while in studio and making music. Which could be the reason why scores of tweeps lambasted them for not wishing the slain rapper a rest in peace message. “They have huge egos those ones what I’ve noticed is that it’s not only them. So many celebs are quiet” wrote Sis Spokie Tweeps also attacked rapper Cassper Nyovest following an appreciati­on post he made about AKA’s father, Tony Forbes. Nyovest could not attend both the memorial service and funeral as due to internatio­nal work commitment­s. Tweeps were rubbed the wrong way for his post about AKA’s father when he could not even pay his last respect to the rapper. “What’s the point speaking from miles away and not being there to convey your support to the family!?..

“After the news broke...did you even make your way to the family’s house?. Cass,I’m one of your biggest fan man!!.I was never a Mega fan..but death touched me..” wrote Thabang Kala
