Local rapper Cassper Nyovest feels that the upcoming \u201cYanos Rountable\u201d is not needed.<\/p>\n

Last week, MTV Base announced their latest round table special \u201cYanos Roundtable\u201d which will celebrate amapiano\u2019s biggest stars of 2021 and the top 10 hits that made everyone go wild.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The two-part special will be hosted by Tshego Koke, alongside a panel of the industry\u2019s finest.<\/p>\n

The \u201cYanos Roundtable\u201d is a spin-off of \u201cHottest MCs\u201d.<\/p>\n

Much like the hyped-up list, the panel will join Tshego in determining which amapiano hit was the hottest of 2021.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Earlier this week, a trailer dropped for the TV special, however, the “Destiny\u201c rapper isn\u2019t too pleased by it.<\/p>\n

Taking to Twitter, Cassper lamented about amapiano going the same route as hip hop in South Africa, calling the TV special \u201cunnecessary\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cThis one is not needed. Very unnecessary, starting rubbish Yanos doesn’t need. One of the things that Killed SA Hip Hop. <\/p>\n

\u201cLeave the Yanos alone to grow authentic with love and joy. No gate keepers, no taste makers!!! Just music and groove!!!!\u201d<\/p>\n
