The South African Hip Hop Awards held last Saturday and rapper Cassper Nyovest shone brightly, with three wins.
The show was anchored by Uncle Vinny who locked it down tightly with some lit performances from the likes of Costa Titch, Big Zulu and other stars.
Cassper was recognised in Song of the Year, Album of the Year and Best Male categories.
The rapper tweeted in celebratory mood saying: “If you think I’m gonna win Song of the year at the Hip Hop awards and behave then you got something else coming!!! Plus it’s my birthday in a few days!!! Im about to do the most!!!!“
