Vusi Nova changing his stage name to SNova reminds me of when Snoop Dogg changed his name to Snoop Lion it never works hey we celebs need to understand that changing names never work I tried it also but it didn't work.

People are allowed to rebrand, transform and switch up however they feel like. Y'all need to stop putting others in cocoons just because you're afraid of change. Please stop self imposing and entitlement.
Vusi Nova to SNova it is 🤩✨

Snova saw how vocals on amapiano are utilized…and probably saw the similarities from the top vocalists..
He saw a chance to deliver something different.
Anyways its better to have music that is played everyday every weekend than only during some ceremonies..big up to him
