Cassper & Juju Bump Heads Over #FillUp Controversy About Benny Mayengane

EFF leader Julius Malema decided to voice out his opinion concerning the issue of Cassper suing Tsonga musician Benny Mayengane for using his “signature” phrase #FillUp.

Benny hosted a concert called #FillUpGiyaniStadium in Limpopo last weekend without asking Cassper to use the phrase. Cassper then announced that he will be taking legal action against the musician.

The political party called the cations of Nyovest “selfish, desperate and lousy attempt to profit alone on what is anyway everyone’s, everyday language”.

“Each day coffee shops and beer halls use the words ‘fill up’, in relation to water, coffee, tea, or any beverage. Imagine that they now have to pay (Cassper) before they call on customers to come for a fill up,” read part of the statement.

The party also told Benny not to be afraid of Cassper’s “lousy” lawyers as it has the “best of the best”.

Cassper’s manager Tlee slammed Malema for “sacrificing the work of another black kid”.

“You take a stance for your homeboy when you know well & clear what he’s doing is 100% wrong is not only opportunistic but embarrassing. I have so much respect for you, this is actually disgusting, we are NOT politicians! You are sacrificing the hard work of another Black Kid!!,” he said.
