Nyovest’s announcement, however, coincided with the tragic news which Sunday World broke on Monday, that Amapiano stars, Mpura and Killer Kau had passed away.
Nyovest took to Twitter, following the news and said, “Today was supposed to be such a dope day for me. It turned into such a heavy day with the loss of such young talented gents. We shall resume tomorrow.”

Some tweeps called Cassper out for this, saying that the rap star was making their deaths about him.
One user responded to Cassper and said, “Lmaooooooo…bro, why is everything always have to be about you?? A simple RIP to the gents & condolences to their families would have sufficed.”

Cassper responded to Speedsta and said he was disappointed in him.
He said in a tweet, “This is so disappointing for me cause you used to pick me up in your A3 when I had nothing. Today I have made something of myself & you turned sour cause I outshined those you thought deserved it more than me. I keep saying, if you have something to say to me meet me in the ring.”

Cassper eventually tweeted the following to close the matter:
It's not misunderstood. It's deliberately done. That's why I don't give a fuck anymore. People can talk away. Marete a bone botlhe. Nna I do as I feel and it always comes from a good place. The rest can jump in pool full of sharks. Only God can judge me. https://t.co/xZNRhQqWm1
