While Emtee might be one of the most celebrated rappers in Mzansi, he says he aims to achieve the success AKA had in his career.

Rapper Kiernan “AKA” Forbes was gunned down outside a restaurant in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal on February 10.

The Roll Up hit maker took to his timeline to speak about the impact the late rapper had in the music industry, and how he wanted to emulate it. 

“One day I'll be as big as AKA,” he wrote.

“He was a Giant in fact,” he wrote in another post. 

AKA produced and completed his last album Mass Country before his death.

The album features some of Mzansi's hottest hip hop talent including Khuli Chana, Blxckie, Emtee, Yanga Chief, Sjava and Nadia Nakai .
