MUSIC: AKA is the ‘Baddest’
Kiernan Forbes, also known as AKA, has been trending for different reasons this week.
It has come to the fore that the award-winning rapper has been doing ‘extra-mural activities‘ with presenter Bonang Matheba, leading to a breakup with his baby mama Zinhle.
Condemned from all corners of the country, AKA is now proving he’s the “Baddest”. Well, in his new release song, not in real life.
Now the rapper has shown his haters that despite all the negativity that made him trend on Thursday, he’s still moving forward, and cannot be discouraged.
In a song that sounds a little bit Kwaito-ish, the rapper featured Khuli Chana, Burna Boy and Yanga.

AKA claims the song has already hit the number one spot in iTunes. He tweeted:

This comes after AKA released Composure, a song that got twitteratis tweeting. The track has since received both positive and negative reviews from the public. In the song, AKA tackles fellow rappers Cassper Nyovest, Anatii and Ricky Rick.
The five-plus-minute barrage of bars marked the first time AKA has taken his much-publicised beef with Cassper Nyovest and his tiffs with other rappers off Twitter and into the studio.
