Camstar Clears the Air: No Diss Aimed at Jae Cash or Dizmo in “So Special (Freestyle)”

Zambian hip-hop artist Camstar has come forward to address the recent controversy surrounding his latest release, “So Special (Freestyle).” Following the drop of the track, rumors and misunderstandings have swirled, suggesting that Camstar was dissing fellow rappers Jae Cash and Dizmo. Camstar took to his Facebook page to clarify the situation and set the record straight.

In his post, Camstar expressed his disappointment over the misinterpretation of his freestyle. He emphasized that the song was never intended to be a response to “LSK Running,” a track by Jae Cash. Camstar explained that he used simple and straightforward language in “So Special (Freestyle),” making it clear that there was no hidden agenda or subliminal shots aimed at anyone.

Camstar stated: “I feel like something has to be addressed here. Been receiving phone calls and messages from people who have misunderstood the FREESTYLE I dropped yesterday. It’s very disappointing because I used simple English on that record.”

Camstar also shed light on the verse that Jae Cash used in “LSK Running.” According to Camstar, this verse was originally sent to him by Jae Cash for a remix of his track “Reporting Live from Lusaka.” However, the remix was never released because H Mac, who was involved in the project, decided to shelve it. Camstar clarified that Jae Cash later used this verse in “LSK Running,” after making a few changes and directly addressing H Mac.

Camstar elaborated on the situation, stating: “The verse Jae put in ‘LSK Running’ was the verse he sent to me! It was supposed to feature on the remix of my record ‘Reporting Live from Lusaka.’ H Mac decided not to release the song, Jae got offended and used the same verse on ‘LSK Running,’ of course a few lines were changed and he openly addressed H.”

In his post, Camstar made it clear that he does not want any unnecessary feuds, especially with artists he considers brothers. He emphasized that he was not among those referenced in “LSK Running” because he was never signed to New Age, a label that has worked with various artists without signing them, including himself and Alpha Romeo.

Camstar concluded his statement with a call for unity among Lusaka-based rappers, declaring that internal conflicts should be avoided: Lastly, as an LSK N***, I will say ‘Burg on Burg Crime’ is PROHIBITED! ???? This is a declaration!!! I decided to write my piece because I don’t want unnecessary feuds, especially with people I see as brothers.”*

Camstar’s candid clarification highlights his commitment to maintaining peace and unity within the Zambian hip-hop community. By addressing the rumors head-on, he has dispelled any misconceptions about “So Special (Freestyle)” and reaffirmed his respect for fellow artists Jae Cash and Dizmo. As an influential figure in the Zambian music scene, Camstar’s message of brotherhood and solidarity is a positive step toward fostering a supportive environment for all artists.
