Youngsta CPT is determined to fight for justice for slain rapper AKA and is using his music to amplify his voice.

Kiernan “AKA” Forbes was gunned down outside a Durban restaurant in February. Celebrity chef and author Tebello “Tibz” Motsoane was also killed in the shooting. 

Investigations into the murders  continue, and Youngsta CPT is demanding answers.   

In his latest single Bok Freestyle, Youngsta jumps on a beat AKA used on Mbuzi Freestyle featuring Thato Saul.

The rapper speaks about how the country is seeking justice three months after AKA's death and how he continue to feel emotional about it.

Read some of the lyrics below:

No disrespect to the friends and the family, I know that you mourning in private. If we were with Kiernan that night and they shoot him? I’m telling you now there is more of us dying!

I am Kiernan's revenge.

We all know Forbes is the goat, guess that makes me the bok, he died with a crown full of thorns

Nadia and Kiernan could have been the Carters... we all know Kiernan is the Goat.

Recently Youngsta CPT took to his timeline writing: “At this point, South Africa has failed Kiernan Jarryd Forbes.”

Many on social media have questioned the lack of progress in the murder case and  some have speculated what led to the murder and how the rapper had allegedly been warned about setting foot in Durban.

During an interview on eNCA, his mother Lynn Forbes said she was not looking to rush the police in their investigation as it was not going to bring her son back. She said she appreciated the updates the family has been receiving from police.

“Kiernan is gone, and nothing that's going to be rushed is going to bring him back. I'm still going to go to bed without my son and I’m going to wake up without my son. It doesn’t matter who is arrested. That’s never going to change. I’m speaking on behalf of myself. I’m allowing the investigation to run its course because nothing is going to be different,” she said.

“I don’t want to believe he had enemies. I don’t want to believe somebody would’ve hated him that much. I don’t know if it was hate. Even if somebody disliked him, I don't know if it would’ve been enough to plan, calculate and discuss how to take him out.”
