Africa’s hottest rapper, Cassper Nyovest, agrees with M.I Abaga that the Hip-hop movement of South Africa is leading the continent. Cassper, on One on One with Pulse, states that M.I Abaga who in 2017, called for Nigerian rappers to make more ‘Hip-hop’ music via his controversial ‘You rappers should fix up your life’, is right. Cassper Nyovest talks his 10x platinum albums sold record, what he wants to do next after filling a 75,000 capacity at his concert. In December 2017, Nyovest received certifications from the Recording Industry of South Africa (RISA) for selling over 10 million album equivalents. This figure includes streams, digital and physical downloads, caller ringback tunes and everything else he had sold since he first dropped a record. Cassper is Africa’s most prominent rapper.
