         Prince of social networks

I am who I am

While many celebrities prefer to keep to themselves and just randomly share information with their fans , Cape Town born Kiernan Jordan Forbes widely known as AKA has mastered the art of using social mediums such as Twitter and Facebook to interact with his fans and let them in on what's happening in the wold of the self-proclaimed 'Prince of rap'. Aka has taken it upon himself  to make sure that interacting with his fans is done effectively and it remains a priority. Not only has his use of social media given him the platform to give his fans first-hand information but he controls the level of accuracy of whatever the public receives. Although AKA remains an open book many people still perceive him as arrogant and self-centred. But is it that he is arrogant or is his elf-pride too massive for people to handle?

Beef?thing of the past



Many fans were left in awe and disbelief  when things started heating up between two of the best rap artists, Refiloe “Cassper Nyovest” Phoolo and Aka on Twitter.  It is expected for people who work in the same industry and are in the same music genre to have conflict however when it gets to a point where the two cant even be invited to perform at the same venues due the violence that was reported at the Live studios, where does one draw the line? It's good to know that both has put their differences aside and decided to focus on their music.

The happy couple

Social network have really simplified the communication process haven’t they? Just the other day AKA uploaded a picture of a doctor with a screen showing a baby scan in it. Was that perhaps his way of informing fans that he will soon be a daddy? Well, it makes sense that he is linked to the picture because he and long –term girlfriend Dj Zinhle had previously kept their relationship under raps but recently, they revealed each other identities. Well as his song goes, we CONGRATULATE, him hopefully fatherhood will treat him well. 

Undoubtedly AKA’s use of social media network works in his favour because it has not only increased his number of fans but it also hooks his “so called haters “ who are constantly striving to interact with him one on one by commenting on his twitter/ status updates every chance they get. With the above mind, it is quite clear that in this digital age, social media networks have a very powerful role in not only gaining one follower but it goes a long in influencing the public and changing their perception about many things they seem not to understand
