Johannesburg – Drama surrounding the Braaishow continues after the SABC has been ordered to stop The Braai Show With Cass over the intellectual property rights.
The second season of the show was scheduled for next month with rapper Cassper Nyovest as the new presenter, but sadly it doesn’t seem like it’s going to happen.
This comes after AKA served the SABC with a legal letter demanding that they stop the scheduled airing of the show.
The letter revealed that AKA was not consulted for approval as co-owner and executive producer of the show.
According to the letter the producers made an offer and signed Cassper without AKA’s approval.

AKA is demanding “a 50% entitlement, as a joint copyright owner, to all the proceeds received in relation to the show. This includes, but is not limited to, proceeds from the channel, i.e the SABC, Sponsorship, brand, or otherwise concerned, and in relation to the furtherance and/or promotion of the show and also appropriate credit as the executive producer of the show.”
The SABC has been given 48 hours to respond to AKA’s demands.
According to the letter, failure to adhere within the given time will leave the rapper with no choice but to “obtain interim relief on an urgent basis pending a decision from the arbitrator as he is entitled to in accordance with Clause 15.3 of the Primary Agreement.”
