Zambian rapper D Bwoy Telem has found himself at the center of controversy after seemingly throwing shade at fellow artist Yo Maps regarding the reported return of mealie meal and chickens he donated for the funeral of the late King Dandy Krazy.
The backlash erupted after social media users connected D Bwoy’s recent remarks to the unfolding drama surrounding Yo Maps’ contribution to the funeral proceedings. Many believe his comments were an indirect jab at Yo Maps, who recently went live to call out individuals for what he termed as “fake love” towards the late music legend.
The situation took a new turn when reports suggested that the mealie meal and chickens Yo Maps had donated were returned to his residence following his viral outburst. However, before the items could be addressed, some were allegedly looted, further fueling the online conversation.
Fans of Yo Maps were quick to criticize D Bwoy, accusing him of taking unnecessary shots at the singer instead of focusing on unity during a time of mourning. Others, however, defended the rapper, suggesting that his remarks may have been taken out of context.
As the debate continues to rage on social media, neither Yo Maps nor D Bwoy has made an official statement addressing the backlash. However, the incident highlights the ongoing tensions within the Zambian music industry, where artists often find themselves entangled in public disputes.
