AKA wants more local songs in the air

AKA is notorious for voicing his opinion on Twitter and this week was no different. The rapper tweeted at South African Airways asking them why their on-board playlist does not consist of 100% local music. See the tweet here:

Dear @flysaa, as I sit waiting to take off, Im wondering why the playlist while we board does not consist of solely 100% South African music. Please 🙏🏼 … It would be much appreciated.

To which the airline replied that they would take his suggestion into consideration. Which is basically code for “pipe down and listen to your own music.”

Hello AKA, thank you for your suggestion. We will forward this to management. For now we invite you to sit back relax and enjoy our hospitality. NP #CareTeam

His fans had a field day with this tweet, some on his side but some saying he was being too sensitive and even some poking fun at his music accusing him of autotune.
