Cassper admits AKA’s ‘Composure’ gave him sleepless nights

Cassper Nyovest recently told L-Tido that AKA’s diss track Composure gave him ‘sleepless nights’ in an interview.

According to the South African, following an interview with L-Tido, South African rapper Cassper Nyovest has spoken out about his decade-long feud with Kiernan Jarryd Forbes, better known as AKA.

When asked about his beefs with other musicians such as Okmalumkoolkat, Prince Kaybee, and Anatii, the Doc Shebeleza artist confesses that all of those feuds were just trivial arguments that paled in comparison to his “beef” with AKA.

“I think that’s the only real beef I ever had, all the others were quite stupid miscommunications, things that could have been fixed. But the AKA beef was quite bad,” the rapper shared.

Cassper also revealed that AKA’s diss track, Composure, “messed” him up and left him spending his nights sleepless.

“Composure gave me sleepless nights. I use to sit and listen to the record and ask; ‘How does this ma know?’ AKA use to be the first person in think of, when I wake up, during that period.”

“That song really messed me up, it also messed up a lot of relationships for me because I was so mad at everyone”, the Gusheshe artist shared.

“I was mad at the guy who dropped it. Milkshake dropped it. I was mad at Anatii for producing the song. I was mad at the guy who shot the video. I was mad at the girls dancing in the video. I was also mad at the DJ’s who were playing the song in the clubs.”

Despite his strong feelings about the song, Cassper admits that he loved it and thought it was good.

“I use to be so conflicted all the time because it was a nice song, but he was tearing me apart,” the musician shared.
