Ntsiki Mazwai wants her flowers. Nota Baloyi handed her a cactus. The music executive publicly shredded Mazwai on social media after she listed her creative contributions. Mazwai had cited her work in beadwork, poetry, music, and podcasting as foundational for new artists.
Nota’s response was a brutal character attack. He labeled her a jealous person incapable of celebrating others. He specifically claimed she never even cheers for her own siblings.
His rant included a bizarre accusation about colonized behavior. This was linked to Mazwai posing nude for a Marie Claire magazine feature. Nota stated he would no longer give her the benefit of the doubt.
The online spat dragged on for hours, pulling in followers from both sides. Fan reactions were predictably divided within their respective comment sections. Some supporters defended Mazwai’s right to acknowledge her own legacy.
Others backed Nota’s harsh critique, referencing Mazwai’s past controversial statements. The entire exchange served as another messy public feud within South Africa’s creative community. It highlighted ongoing tensions about recognition and ego in the industry.
