South Africans woke up this morning to find hip-hop rapper Cassper Nyovest trending after he got on the wrong end of comedic rapper Big Xhosa, who called him out for a boxing bout.
It all started when Cassper took to Twitter to talk about the need to boost celebrity boxing all over the continent. The rapper asked his followers who would make a good boxing match and a few famous names came up.
“Celebrity boxing is sooo big in the states, I think we could make decent money in Africa with it too. It could also boost boxing on the continent. Who do you think would make a great boxing fight?” he tweeted.
A Twitter user came up with Big Xhosa vrs Emtee and Cassper said Emtee shouldn’t be disrespected like that because Big Xhosa is not a celebrity. This didn’t go down well with Big Xhosa who challenged Cassper to match up in the ring with him.
“Mfanaka , nkao Roba roba I won’t even lie to you. Don’t do this, I know you want clout Mara tswada. It’s not gonna end well.” Warned Nyovest and Xhosa told him not to mention his name at all.
“Ubindiwe wena Cassper! I was chilling minding my business and you said something about me and I responded, now I’m the one that wants clout? Bruh don’t even mention me at all, go back to blocking me wena Blockist.”
Turns out Cassper was serious about the fight and again asked the comedic rapper if he’d like to get in the ring or not.
“I said you’re not a celebrity. You started swearing at me and saying you will knock me out. Now, let’s get to the point, do you mean your words or were you just tryna get clout? You wanna step in the ring or not? I will make you a celebrity overnight!!!”
Responding to the offer to get in the ring, Xhosa claimed that he’d knock Cassper out in the first round and Cassper asked him to set the date.
“Man that’s Xhosa for you. I was not swearing at you. I was saying “Fuck being a celebrity, you won’t do shit to me”…I don’t want to be a celebrity. But ke I will knock you out on the first round ndisatsho nangoku”
