Local musos start the week with a twar
JOHANNESBURG – Twitter exploded this morning, thanks to a tweet by Black Coffee which local musician AKA did not appreciate!
It all started with what appears to be an innocent tweet – but is there such a thing these days? Black Coffee said “Now that’s hip hop … not this nonsense some of our local hip hop artists do … some even attacking tweeps …. Put in a song … We want MUSIC.”
AKA was not impressed and responded with his own tweet.

But instead of leaving it there, he decided to vent some pent-up frustration.

Hip Hop is MUSIC
Being arrogant has nothing to do with MUSIC
Being humble has nothing to Do with any Genre of Music you Do.BE HUMBLE— Black Coffee (@RealBlackCoffee) July 26, 2015
Many fans of both parties decided to put in their two cents.

Funny enough, hip hop cats never sticked em nose in Dance/house music calture, Black Coffee and the rest are to quick to be opinionistic

At the end it was an opinion about drake that triggered AKA's periods. That shows the standards on maturity levels @realblackcoffee

Needless to say, after the public laid bare their opinions on the matter, the entire thing was settled with a final tweet from each artist.
