Truce at last as South African rappers AKA and Anatii end beef

Anatii and AKA.

South African rappers, AKA and Anatii seem to have settled their highly publicised beef which made headlines for months in 2015.

The pair were once the best of buds, but their relationship went sour late last year after AKA accused Anatii of trying to charge him R80,000 (over N1m) for a beat.

What followed was a petty spat between the two, with Anatii not only threatening legal action against AKA but also blurring his face out of artwork for the pair’s collaboration, ‘The Saga’.

But as we all know, time is a healer. And in the months that have followed their falling-out, the pair seem to have grown up.

Speaking on SA’s Metro FM on Thursday, AKA suggested that he had settled his beef with Anatii and revealed that he had even visited the artiste in his studio.

‘The other day I actually visited Anatii in his studio. Two days ago. And we had a well-documented rift’, he said.

Now, about his arch-rival Cassper Nyovest.

AKA addressed the question of whether he will ever work with Cassper, by suggesting that any collaboration between the pair would need to be organic.

‘Things have to be organic. I just found that as I grow older I just don’t have it in my heart. You know that type of stuff takes a lot of energy. I’m not saying that we have to be best buddies but who knows, man? Never say never’, he said.

So, there’s a chance AKA will also kiss and make up with Cassper.
