Johannesburg - Rapper and star producer, JR has responded to claims that it was him and not AKA who wrote the mega hit, Congratulate!
All the drama stems from a diss track released by Cassper Nyovest last week, where the rapper reveals that it was JR and not AKA that wrote arguably one of AKA's biggest songs (listen to the claims made by Cassper here).
Well, JR has responded to the claims, going on a Twitter rant this week.
In the rant, he points out that it is public knowledge that he wrote the song, and seems to suggest that if people don't like it, they should hire a stronger team.
This Congratulate thing must stop now!! Read the credits in the album... Check the co-writers... It's been public knowledge!!

Aka wrote majority 80% myself and Kaygee from Morafe wrote minority 20% Now go ahead with your day. Thank you...

AKA called me and Kaygee in is because he wanted a different perspective not to mention a guaranteed chart topper, which he got.

Every major song in the world is a collaborative effort whether from the front or the backline. If you want a consistent hits get a team...

He even has a proposal for Cassper and AKA. We wonder if they will bite? I think I have a plan that can make Kiernan and Refiloe R5mil each...R10mil total deal. Maybe I should give them a call.
