Cassper Nyovest reveals he wont be part of AKA’s funeral and memorial services. Following the brutal killing of his rap rival, Kiernan Jarryd Forbes, Cassper Nyovest has reduced his social media activity. Despite their initial friendship, things took a turn for the worse between Cassper and AKA, with both engaging in public spats on social media and in person.
However, it’s worth noting that Cassper had previously acknowledged AKA as an inspiration to him before their relationship soured.
While it is true that Cassper is deeply affected by AKA’s unexpected demise, he issued a statement earlier this week to convey his grief for the loss of Forbes and his companion, Tebello “Tibz” Motsoane. In his message, he expressed sympathy for their loved ones.
“My sincere condolences goes out to Kiernan and Tebello’s families, colleagues and fans. May their souls rest in peace and their legacies be celebrated. May the Good lord be with all of you at this sad time.”

He then asked his fans to send love to AKA’s fans.
“To all my fans, pls send all your love to the Megacy and family. The nation is mourning & could use more love and less evil.”
When asked by fans if he would attend the funeral and memorial services, he responded that he would if he were in the country. However, he is currently out of the country for work and therefore regrets that he will be unable to attend either service.
“Unfortunately I’ll be out of the country for work but if I was around I would’ve went. I would’ve went to the funeral too,” he said.
Although he acknowledged their disagreement, he also noted that they had shared good times together. Additionally, he emphasized that his contributions to the Hip Hop industry would not be overlooked.
“No matter how you look at it, me and Kiernan shared a lot of great moments together and he contributed to my industry so I have to pay my respects.”
