Cassper claimed that the biblical King Solomon served as an inspiration for his record during an interview with L-Tido Podcast. Similar to King Solomon, the rapper said that while he has made his share of mistakes, he still feels like a superhero.

“It was named after the story of King Solomon, but it was also nice that you know he [Carpo] could have that moment,” he said. “So yeah it’s [album] titled after the story of King Solomon, one of the wisest and wealthiest men to live and he had his own flaws. I see myself as like I’m a superhero but I’ve got my own flaws,” he said.

Many people flooded his comments section with congratulatory messages.

Media personality Boity Thulo, who is also the ex-partner of Cassper, took to his comments section dropping fire emojis “?????????.”

“Said this one is not like any other ????? Abhuti ??????,” wrote a fan.

Another user added: “Very authentic ? love it.”
