Cassper rubbishes 'copycat' accusations

Johannesburg- A picture of Cassper Nyovest wearing a mask during one of his performances has ignited debate on social media. 

The Doc Shebeleza rapper was smacked with copycat accusations from some users, who claim that it's K.O's trademark. 

Shortly after the rapper shared a picture of himself wearing a white mask, the comment section on his Instagram page was filled with comments about it.

Some users dug into him for apparently stealing the look, while Cassper's fans jumped to his defence.

Cassper also came out strongly to defend himself. 

In response to one follower who accused him of stealing the look from K.O, Cassper simply told him to sit down. 

"I started doing the mask 2 years ago. Don't fool yourself, go through my Instagram," Cassper responded. 

Here's the picture that started it all...
