After getting trolled for the new flavour, AKA slammed haters and remained unbothered. This time the trolling went international but Mega is actually glad it went as far as reaching the states. Popular news company which solely caters for the African-American demographic The Shade Room, shaded Mega’s new Banana Cruz Deluxe packaging.
In their edition of ‘Bi**h Stole My Look’ they likened AKA’s yellow Cruz bottle to Schwarzkopf göt2b Glued Blasting Freeze Spray bottle, which is also yellow in colour.
Dubbed as the ‘alcoholic mageu’, AKA is pleased that his brand not only caught the attention of The Shade Room, their following too sweetens the deal. TSR has 21.5 million followers on their Instagram account meaning, 21.5 million people got to know about AKA’s new flavour.
“People hating got my product on The Shade Room. Now 21.5m more people know about Banana Deluxe. Thank you so much! Keep it up!” wrote AKA. “The shade room is big … 21.5million followers on Instagram. What a blessing,” he added.
Although the post got deleted, the internet never forgets. Mega posted the screenshot but is surprisingly not mad at the shade thrown.

AKA released the flavour along with his EP Bhovamania, and that too received so much hate. The chart-topping album reached the number 1 on 5 different Southern African Development Communities, something that rarely happens. However, the trolls were readily waiting to rain on his parade.
A troll asked him despite the success his EP is receiving, does he really think it is nice and good listen, Mega responded by saying indeed he does think it ‘slaps’, saying it is a nice piece of art.
“Do I THINK it slaps? let me put it like this … great art is always polarizing. You either really fucking hate it or you REALLY love it. The worst thing would be if someone asked you … what do you think about #BHOVAMANIA? And you said …. I don’t think about it,” he clapped back.
AKA stays bragging about his success. He said, “If I put my name on it, you best believe I’m bringing my A-game on it. Trust the Supa Mega to drop a taste like nobody else had ever,” he said as quoted by Tshisa Live.
