I’m not the one posting on Twitter, I don’t know who is and the person has been sending me messages on WhatsApp telling me to be ready to take the heat. I don’t know if the person has been insulting people or what but I’m still trying to fix this. Please don’t listen to what they’re saying, I don’t know what they want.”
One of the messages Babes claimed to have been written by her alleged hacker reads: “I said what I said and I don’t care if you guys hate me or not, I’m proud. I meant what I said hence why the video is everywhere so that you guys can see. I can drop a song anytime you guys will still download it and book me as well so fokof!!”
