There is a lot of speculation on Cassper and Riky Rick are currently embroiled in a beef.

The speculation was further heightened up by Cassper not performing at the Cotton Fest.

The Cotton Fest was an Inaugural event which was a brainchild of Riky.

Considering the two are bestie it was quite obvious that Mufasa would perform but that was not the case.

Many of the people even thought that  Cassper would be a surprise guest.

But he took to Twitter to shut down; the rumors saying ;

Cassper took to Twitter to express his disinterest in the South Africa Music Awards.

He tweeted that the awards are doing fine without him.

This was his response after the SAMAS posted a video of his female fan pleading with Cassper Nyovest to submit his music this year.

This will not be the first time that Cassper is boycotting the SAMAs.

The entry for the SAMAs is open, and musicians are welcome to submit their body of work with to be part of the nomination process.

Its now becoming a habit for our celebs to boycott award shows, due to their biased nature.

In an Interview with the Daily Sun,Tshepo talked about his excitement on seeing the rapper rock his bran

“I knew he was going to wear the outfit at his concert, but I did not know he would also wear it at the Global Citizen Festival.”

“My outfit was worn on big stages and that makes me really happy,” he said.

“Cassper said he needed something comfortable. We did not make any fittings and he did not have a specific design, but when he saw the outfit he was like a baby seeing a lollipop,” he said.

“The response from the public has been positive. People were applauding Casper for wearing a local brand and I am happy about that,” he said.

In an Interview with SABC 3, Cassper claimed to be R7m in debt after his Fill Up Moses Mabhida show.  

“I’ve been an emotional wreck, me and my team, cause we went from Mabhida, which was like the most hectic thing we ever went through. So Global Citizen was such a dope way to end the week. The biggest challenge with where we are as a team is that is that we refuse to accept mediocrely, so we’re trying to push the industry further. Most often we find ourselves in positions where we need funding and we need sponsorships from institutes like the government, and we were not able to be supported the way we should be.“For instance, we just came from Mabhida and right now we’re sitting with R7m debt after engaging with all the different departments that were supposed to help us.”He was quoted saying.

At a briefing held at the Durban stadium yesterday, Cassper addressed the  rumours that he received R56 million from eThekwini Municipality.

The briefing was attended by KZN artists’ organisations and forums, as well as DJ Tira. Cassper said he had not received any money from the municipality.

“When I first organised #FillUpTheDome, it was difficult and I thought maybe people didn’t understand the concept behind it,” said Cassper.

“The government came on board at the last minute.

“I remember I was called by the minister to say they had come to an agreement to sponsor the event.

“I hope the municipality will fund us or a lot of things will be compromised.”

Organisations such as Delangokubona, Radical Economic Transformation and the Creative Workers Union of South Africa have claimed Cassper was given R56 million by the municipality and demanded that they benefit, too.

The union’s Joy Mbewana said they were not against the show but against the money Cassper was rumoured to have received.

“We’ve reached an agreement and we’re happy. We were surprised to find out the rumours were untrue,” she said.

As we are all gearing up for #FillupMosesMabhida one of his fan has gone out of the way to showcase his love for Cassper Nyovest.
