WATCH | 'Corny as hell' AKA drops much-anticipated 'Bhovamania' EP
Rapper AKA has finally dropped his much-awaited EP Bhovamania, and it seems like the streets (read megacy) are loving it.
At the beginning of the year, AKA revealed he was working on a project which was first assumed to be an album, but he later came out to say it was actually an extended play (EP).
With a full 13-track offering, Supa Mega's new body of work is described as a project that “addresses matters of the heart, mind, and soul over EDM, house music and Afropop”.
Trending on multiple spaces on the Twitter trends list and basically making Friday a #Bhovamania day, the rapper has been drinking up all the praises on the TL.
He even agreed when one tweep said he's corny, replying with a tweet saying, “corny as hell”.
Meanwhile, some media and lucky fans braved the rain and attended a young listening session the rapper hosted in Sandton, Johannesburg, on Thursday night.
AKA, who now has a Travis Scott inspired look, gave a nonchalant performance of the tracks on his EP.
And, of course, TshisaLIVE was there. Cava the videos below:
With a “WrestleMania” type of theme, AKA hit the stage and performed the songs on the EP but one song that caught people's attention was the “Mufasa” track.
Here's a little snippet of how it goes:
Lockdown has forced many of Mzansi's artists to cancel gigs and spend time at home in recent months.
AKA said he spent most of his time with his 21-year-old girlfriend, who helped him co-write a song titled Finessin'.
AKA's EP also features the likes of K.O., Don Design, Moozlie, Flvme, Gemini Major, Sho Madjozi, L-Tido, Yanga Chief, and renowned DJ Grandmaster Ready D.
The rapper also hit the stage with his mates, Gemini Major and Yanga Chief.
