The Eastern Cape’s music scene is heating up with a deeply personal feud between singer Andre Graham and rapper Junior King. What started as subtle Instagram shots has escalated into an intense battle filled with raw emotions and hard truths.

🧃The Battle Begins on Instagram

Andre kicked things off by throwing indirect shots at Junior King via Instagram stories, hinting at weaknesses and personal issues without naming him outright. Fans quickly caught on, sparking widespread speculation.

Junior responded not with petty posts, but by dropping the drill-heavy diss track ā€œKopskoot/Headshotā€, directly addressing Andre’s jabs with sharp lyricism and street grit.

šŸ•• Andre’s ā€œ6PMā€ – A Heartfelt But Painful Rebuttal

Andre then released ā€œ6PM,ā€ an emotionally charged track with smooth vocals but pointed lyrics. One of the most talked-about lines references Junior King’s father, Denver:

ā€œTell the people who Denver is… but I know you can't.ā€

This lyric was loaded—Junior’s father is alive and involved, while Andre’s own father has passed away. Many listeners felt this line was a low blow, hitting deeply on a personal level and stirring debate about respect and boundaries in rap beefs.

šŸ”„ Junior’s ā€œAwonkeā€ – Calling Out Allegations and PR Tactics

Junior fired back with ā€œAwonke,ā€ his most personal and fiery track yet. He accused Andre of using a sexual relationship to maintain his lifestyle at the Radisson Blu, suggesting it’s part of a bigger PR scheme to promote his upcoming EP.

Junior’s lyrics also touched on the contrast between their upbringings and struggles, defending his own name while calling out Andre’s motives.


šŸ—£ļø The Public Weighs In

Fans have flooded social media with reactions:

Some say Andre’s ā€œ6PMā€ crossed a line by dragging family into the beef.

Others believe Junior’s ā€œAwonkeā€ exposes a harsh truth behind the scenes.

The community remains divided on whether this is genuine conflict or a marketing ploy.

The feud is more than just music—it’s a clash of stories, pain, and ambition.

Andre brings soulful melodies and emotional delivery, backed by personal loss.

Junior responds with hard-hitting bars and street authenticity, defending his legacy.
