There’s fresh drama sizzling in the Malawi music industry and this time, it’s a heavyweight lyrical face-off between controversial rapper IKK and Tay Grin, the self-proclaimed “Mfumu Paliponse”.

It all started when Tay Grin took to Facebook with a photo of himself stepping off an aircraft, boldly captioned:
“Cosoma this, Cosoma that… Meanwhile, the King got tired of first class and bought a jet.”

That flex didn’t sit well with IKK, who quickly fired back in full-blown Hip Hop diss mode. He slammed Grin’s claims, posting:

You were born in America but you don’t even own an American car like a GMC? You don’t even have an expensive car, but you call yourself a king?

He didn’t stop there. IKK went in deeper:

“Amakupembeza ndi ma kape osakuziwa in & out koma Hip Hop fans sitipusitsidwa! Mfumu yopanda mudzi munaiwona kuti?”

(You’re only hyped by clueless fans, but true Hip Hop heads aren’t buying it! Where have you ever seen a king with no village?)

Taking a final jab at the private jet claim, he mocked:

“That so-called private jet looks like a crop duster used to spray tea leaves!”

Tay Grin, unfazed, responded with a cool “Money Talks 😂” on his own page, suggesting he’s letting his cash do the talking.

But IKK wasn’t done yet. He clapped back with a serious question:

“So is it the donation money you were given after your house burned down that you used to buy a jet?”

For context, earlier this year in March, Tay Grin’s house was gutted by fire, leading to artists and fans organizing a benefit concert in April to help him recover. Now, some fans are wondering if the jet stunt is a bit tone-deaf.

“You’re flexing harder than the people who helped you. We won’t help you again”, commented a certain Netizen.

But Tay Grin wasn’t backing down: “Did you help me with a loan so you can bury me later? Should I be afraid to enjoy life because you’ll dig my grave tomorrow?”

The King vs the Rebel is officially on, and fans are loving the showdown. Whether it’s a real feud or just lyrical sparring for the culture, one thing’s for sure: Malawi Hip Hop is hot again!!!
