The music businessman has kicked off lots of controversial discussions on social media that it even attracted the attention of some international users like Kanye West.

Since Monday evening, 30th of November, Nota Baloyi and Kamo Mphela trend on Twitter after he claimed that the entertainer is a rapper.

Like that was not enough, he further revealed on a TV show hosted by MS Cosmo that he started the SA hip hop.

This claim was made by him after he got questioned on why he wants the rappers in SA to do music according to his standard.

“Why are you trying to define South Africa hip hop to what you want it to be?” one of the guests on the show asked.

In response, the outspoken man said, “because I started it.”

Nota now trends on Twitter with over 120k tweets with his mention.

The video has also gotten the attention of some SA musicians.

In SA we have a whole lot of Nota in the rap scene. People who don’t respect other people’s work, all because they don’t get along with them. Look at that Rashid dude there by Hip Hop SA awards. Fucker is bias as fuck and fights with everyone in the scene. pic.twitter.com/8eE066vPCM
