AKA breathes fire: ‘Whatever happened to Anele Tembe is not anyone’s business’
AKA is trending for the wrong reasons of late. The Hip Hop sensation was hosted by Thando Thabethe for a live interview on radio 94.7. However, the interview was good up until things went sound.
Thabethe caught AKA by surprise when she asked about what really transpired when AKA lost his fiance Anele Tembe when they were about to tie a knot. Anele committed suicide whilst at Cape Town hotel. She committed suicide at the age of 23. Before her death, she had tried to commit suicide when she visited Durban in a hotel.
However, despite assuring that the matter is under investigation the police haven’t yet issued an update since her death.
Despite Mogile Mogotsotso interview, with AKA, Mzansi felt that he didn’t say much about his fiance’s death on Prime media.
A video showing an awkward exchange between radio presenter Thando Thabathe and rapper AKA trended on social media over the weekend. The footage showed Thabethe asking AKA about the incident which left Anele Tembe dead and promptly being shut down by the entertainer. Mzansi social media had mixed reactions about AKA’s behaviour, although a few of his fans understood why he snapped.
AKA breathes fire: ‘Whatever happened to Anele Tembe is not anyone’s business’
When Thabethe attempted to question AKA about the fateful events that occurred in Cape Town where he lost his fiancée, the rapper promptly and rudely shut her down. AKA said that it was none of her business and he would not be discussing that matter on the show with her. Many have had mixed reactions over how he chose to shut Thando down and how she responded:
@philtherealsa1 said: “Yhoo… super awkward, but Thando shouldn’t have touched that topic. AKA was right… it is an incident to us but a real-life to him.”
@mefika1 said: “Someone tell AKA to go hide for 10 years, then come back.”
@katli_mathule said: “AKA wena you must tell us what happened that morning in Cape Town, whatever happens in the dark must come to light bru.”
@lindelwaSD said: “Was the interview about AKA’s life or his new album? We need to understand that these are real people, with real lives. We can’t use their tragic experiences for entertainment every chance we get. I would have responded the same way. There’s no need to be kind to unkind people.”
