Is AKA #TreatedLikeBeyonce?

Johannesburg - AKA had Twitter in stitches on Friday after the rapper found a novel way to express his delight at being named the most played local artist on radio.

The rapper posted a link to the list, along with the hashtag #TreatedLikeBeyonce.

The hashtag is an obvious swipe at rival Cassper Nyovest, who last week ranted in an interview about how radio was not playing his music, and how he wanted Mzansi to start treating him "like Beyoncé" (more on that here).

The hashtag soon trended as Twitter reacted to the shade in the most hilarious way:

#TreatedLikeBeyonce will trend before some rapper's new music vid
