South African hiphop act AKA took to Twitter yesterday to announce that he won’t be attending the much-anticipated Back to City music festival in South Africa.

He explained that the reason for cancelling was because international stars on the list were given more exposure than him.

“Instead of what we had agreed upon, my name was confined to what I can only describe as minor details on the flyer,” the rapper wrote, adding “I consider myself an International act. I have the tours‚ awards‚ following and most importantly the live show and music to prove it. With all due respect to Elzhi‚ Jay Live‚ Skyzoo & Camp Lo‚ I will not allow an artist like myself to be reduced to a minor detail.”
