Popular gospel singer Solly Moholo is spitting mad after discovering a provocative song said to have been recorded by him.

Solly has been the subject of several rumours online after a fake news site released a sex song apparently recorded by the artist.

The song, entitled Ke Batla Kuku (I want a vagina), was circulated by the site and has had fans in a tizz.

But speaking to Daily Sun this week, Solly says that he has nothing to do with the song and that the people responsible for the song are out to get him.

"They are jealous and they are trying to tarnish my name," he told the paper.

He says that he has received numerous phone calls and messages from concerned fans and family members who asked him about the song, but he assured them that it was not him singing on the track.

"I have nothing to do with this song. I would never record such music. I would never release a song that looks down on anyone," he added.

Solly has also shut down the rumour that he had recorded the song because he was suffering from a mental illness and had been admitted to a mental institution.

"I know nothing about this illness. I am as fit and healthy as ever. I cannot remember the last time I visited a hospital," he said.

But those are not the only rumours that poor Solly has had to battle lately.

The star was recently accused of being an alcoholic and turning to the bottle, following reports by Sunday World in June that he faced expulsion from the ZCC church for wearing his church uniform and performing the church's famous dance moves on stage without their permission.

He has hit back at these reports, saying that he has never touched alcohol and is still very much a part of the church.
