In 2012, we saw a rise in trap music in SA producers and DJs began incorporating elements of trap music into their works and it seems to grow.

Lavesh says #ShakaZulu is just a teaser to his proclaimed debut mixtape that will drop early next year.

Stay tuned for more! 

Who got more bars?

Until when we gotta hear another diss track from AKA?

It feels just like yesterday when AKA dropped #Composure, a diss song that is seen as lyrical by many, while Cassper Nyovest on the other hand dropped #Dust2Dust which was viewed as being more personal and fact revealing by many. 

The two South African hip hop artists have gone head to head like two pitbulls. These two rappers got the streets talking and their beef is estimated at a worth of 23 million rands worth of publicity on Facebook and Twitter alone. After Cassper dropped #Dust2Dust they were 49 974 online conversations about their beef (News24.com)

From lines like "Young king, I should have took you under my wing, instead I let you under my skin" -AKA to "You said we similar, you stupid and i'm dumb nice, thats why you came to a gun fight with a blunt knife" -Cassper

This might be entertaining for the fans at the moment but in the long run it may have a negative impact as a result that they may lose a portion of fans and brands won't want to associate with them because of the beef.

Lets take a look at the free-styling skills of the two rappers below:

Ok now lets hear what you have to say here are a few ideas:

• Do you find it entertaining?
• Who is winning so far lyrically?
• Should they stop the beef?
