Rapper Cassper Nyovest refused to answer questions about the unresolved three-million-euro lawsuit filed by a production company after allegedly destroying property during an interview that became violent.
Rawbust Productions has sent a letter to a musician claiming that the alleged quarrel has led to damage and loss of income.
The legal document owned by TshisaLIVE claims that a member of Tusko D's production company joined Cassper in an interview with South African hip-hop awards in Gold Reed City in December 2017.
The company claims Cassper became violent when he was asked to confirm his claim on reaching record 10 million albums sold in his career.
Cassper's assertion that he sold 10 million records received much controversy after DJ Warhoris publicly questioned the statement. It was not clear whether Cassper meant 10 million sold records or included streams.
Rawbust claims Cassper threatened to damage the camera's equipment and eventually calm down after reaching agreement.
“We are advised that when our client interviewed yourself (Cassper), you were unhappy with the questions posed and thereafter threatened to damage our client’s equipment, including their cameras. Our client proceeded to inform you that they would be willing to hand over their memory card on the basis that just your interview be deleted. Our client confirms that your management team took possession of the memory card at around 22:00 pm and disappeared backstage. After half an hour, our client’s memory card was handed back.”
The letter of demand states that the Rawbust team later realised that several hours of footage from that day were “erased” instead of just the interview as was allegedly agreed.
However, despite the letter being sent to Cassper over three weeks ago, the rapper nor his management have responded.
TshisaLIVE has made repeated attempts to get comment from Cassper. His manager, Tshepo ‘Spike’ Seone said he would not comment on the matter.
