South African rapper Nasty C has shared his reaction to the post and approval and signing by United States musician, Chris Brown.
Heading to social media, Nasty C seems to be in disbelief as he reacted to the viral post.
Born Nsikayesizwe David Junior Ngcobo, Nasty C might be over the moon after American R&B singer Brown co-signed him.
The US star, Chris, posted a clip of Nasty’s rap freestyle on his Instagram stories and Nasty C reposted it on his timeline.
“Bro whaaat? (and this freestyle’s almost ag 500K on OTR YouTube channel),” he wrote.
Chris joins Canadian-born rapper Drake whose co-signing of Mzansi musicians has become second nature to the rapper.
He reposted a clip from Uncle Waffles’ stories on Instagram last year which was considered a co-sign in the music world. “Co-sign” is a form of endorsement on social media, especially when bigger and more established artists show love to an upcoming star — an informal way of giving a shoutout or stamp of approval.
Her debut album Red Dragon became the most streamed project on Apple Music in the country as previously reported by Entertainment SA.
“This moment feels surreal and I’m so grateful for what my life has become in the past six months,” Waffles wrote on Twitter.
The award-winning Drake also lauded South African amapiano hitmaker Kelvin Momo for his music skills.
“You, my friend…are from another planet. Listening to you is like a religious experience,” the message read.
Reacting to the message, Kelvin said the rapper’s shoutout meant the world to him.
“Waking up to such. Speechless! le re nna ke etsa hanyani, jokes aside. Getting a DM from Drake means a lot, I don’t even know what to say but [I] am f*cken grateful man,” he wrote.
Meanwhile, this website reported that Mzansi rapper Rouge has lambasted music fans who wait for international approval before acknowledging local musicians.
The talented rapper took to Twitter and explained her stance, saying Nasty C’s talents should have been recognised in South Africa before impressing the likes of Chris Brown.
Rouge’s social media post comes after Nasty C received praise when multi-award-winning American singer as Brown recently shared the rapper’s freestyle from On The Radar With Gabe P on his Instagram stories.
Un unhappy Rouge expressed her displeasure, adding that she was appalled by people not giving artists their credit when it is due.
