Cassper Nyovest responds to criticism over new single ‘Kusho Bani’! South African hip-hop sensation Cassper Nyovest is back in the spotlight, actively promoting his new single Kusho Bani following a brief hiatus from the music scene. The rapper, known for his ability to consistently drop chart-topping hits, has been teasing the track on social media and engaging with fans to build anticipation even before its official release.
However, while many of his supporters have welcomed his return, not everyone is on board with his latest musical effort. Some social media users have criticized the song, with claims that Cassper has “fallen off” and should consider stepping away from music.
Mixed Reactions from Fans and Critics
As with most new releases, Kusho Bani has sparked a debate among listeners. While some fans have praised the song for its energy and lyrical content, others have expressed disappointment, arguing that it lacks the impact of Cassper’s earlier work.
One critic on X (formerly Twitter) openly questioned Cassper’s current musical direction by comparing the song to his past hits. “This can’t be the same man that gave us Phumakim,” the user tweeted, referencing one of Cassper’s biggest tracks from his early career. The tweet quickly gained traction, with mixed reactions from other users.
Cassper Nyovest is no stranger to criticism and wasted no time addressing the negativity. In response to the tweet, he reminded fans that even his past hits, which are now regarded as classics, were met with similar skepticism when they were first released.
“Phumakim was also called trash on Twitter when it came out, so was Doc Shebeleza and all my other hits—12 years straight!!! I know what I’m doing, and this Twitter hype dies when I get on stage!!! Y’all can’t stop me or convince my fans I’m not the GOAT!!! I AM THAT NIGGA!!!” he wrote.
His response highlights his confidence in his craft and his belief that public opinion on social media does not define his success. Cassper has long maintained that his real impact is measured by his ability to sell out shows, dominate streaming charts, and maintain a loyal fan base.
A Career Marked by Resilience
Cassper’s journey in the South African music industry has been filled with both praise and criticism. Since bursting onto the scene with Gusheshe and Doc Shebeleza, he has continued to evolve his sound, experimenting with different styles while maintaining his authenticity.
Over the years, the rapper has faced numerous challenges, from industry politics to social media scrutiny. Despite this, he has consistently delivered hit songs, won multiple awards, and hosted groundbreaking events like the Fill Up concerts, which saw him filling stadiums with thousands of fans.
Fans Show Their Support
Despite the online backlash, many fans have come to Cassper’s defense, insisting that he remains one of the best artists in South Africa. Several users took to social media to voice their support for Kusho Bani and remind critics of the rapper’s longevity in the game.
One fan tweeted, “Cassper has been giving us classics for over a decade. Y’all always doubt him, but he stays winning.”

With Kusho Bani steadily gaining traction, it’s clear that Cassper is not fazed by social media criticism. If history has taught us anything, it’s that he has a track record of proving his critics wrong. Whether Kusho Bani becomes another classic remains to be seen, but one thing is certain—Cassper Nyovest is here to stay!
