Kwesta sent shockwaves reverberating across South African Hip-Hop when, on Wednesday, he released Quantham, a diss track targeted at the genre’s chief instigator, Big Zulu.

Taking a similar approach to K.O on his response diss, Omega Freestyle, the Vur Vai hitmaker went straight for the jugular. On Quantham, Kwesta disregards Zulu’s 150 Bars as a cheap reach for clout.
He sets himself apart from the Imali Eningi rapper as his senior in the rap game, likening his brand to taxi driver stereotypes.
Kwesta keeps his proverbial foot on Zulu’s neck for more than three minutes, delivering hard-hitting punchlines in vernac that left many fans gob-smacked.

Of course, this does not necessarily mean that beef is brewing between participants of this rap relay.
K.O, in a tweet posted on Wednesday, applauded Zulu for resurrecting Hip-Hop.
Zulu, on the other hand, could not care less about the fiery responses to his industry-wide diss track.
In fact, the rapper is already performing 150 Bars at shows, and, thus far, the song has garnered more than a million views on YouTube.
