A strange twar broke out between actress Pearl Thusi and rapper Cassper Nyovest on Thursday after Thusi posted photos of herself riding a horse and saying she had fallen off it at one point.
Cassper found the idea of her on a horse hilarious and told her that black women shouldn’t even be trying to ride horses.
“What were you doing on a horse wena as a black woman?”
He advised her that certain things “should be left to white people”.
She had earlier tweeted that she’d been on a horse called Ebony for a photo-shoot and suffered some “minor injuries” when it freaked out and threw her off.
But, she said, “I got right back on to get the job done and because giving up is not in my nature.”
She was unimpressed at Cassper’s mockery and gave him a quick lesson in feminism: “So you believe black women should be limited? You’re (sic) narrow minded self also doesn’t know black people were riding horses on our continent for centuries?! And now as a black woman I must be confined to YOUR LIMITS. Nigga GTFOH.”
The abbreviation stands for “Get the f**k outta here.”
Cassper hit back, asking her if her anger was because he’d laughed at her for falling off the horse or because he’d wondered what a black woman was doing on a horse in the first place.
She told him to “free his mind” and added that people shouldn’t be telling others what they were capable of.
