K.O. is the best rapper in South Africa, according to media personality Sizwe Dhlomo. "The rapper has no competition in the game, as his competitors have passed," the Kaya FM host asserted firmly on his X account.
According to Dhlomo, "K.O. has no living competition." Sizwe's tweet received a lot of attention, however we don't know what led to this accusation.
Since Emtee, Kwesta, Kid X, and others are deserving of competition, the majority of users disagreed with the presenter's assertion.
"KO?," one user wrote. No, buddy. Though not very good, he is good. Although it may sound absurd, I really like Emtee. Nigga has amazing talent.
It was said by another: "Good. But. Caracara is owned by KidX, Don Dada is owned by OkMalumkoolkat, and Roiii owns Homeground. Let me say that Maglera018 owns Cook. Perhaps longevity/consistency and Nasty are still going strong. Unless you're talking boxing, then the answer is probably no: nothing beats a K.O.
One commenter added: "Who is the guy he features in Let Me Cook? That bro is the real cook in that song. He raps with acronyms." I'm not sure what the scene is, so I'll just say what you guys play on the radio, which I assume accounts for 20% of the total.
Besides his Reputation which has led to lackluster releases of late. pic.twitter.com/Hpm8fNCi67
