KOKA takes credit for King Paluta's Makoma's success
In a discussion on Asempa FM's Showbiz Review show, Entertainment pundit KOKA stated that his critique of King Paluta's vocals on Makoma catapulted the song to mainstream success.
He said his comments about King Paluta's vocals got many people to listen to the song and increase its popularity and numbers on music streaming platforms.
He said,
"People called to thank me for being the reason why he listened to the song. Before I critiqued the song, it had about 800 hits, but now it has over a million hits. Go and check his streaming numbers on the digital music markets and you will see his numbers have double. I am the one responsible for it. My comments got people to listen to him."
KOKA also added that the Makoma song received a lot of airplay on media platforms because some people disliked him for criticising King Paluta's vocals on the song.
He stated,
"Who has had a conversation about my comments without playing the song? Because of their dislike for me, people are playing the music more, which is good. If people's hatred of me propels King Paluta to higher heights, I welcome it."
The entertainment pundit received a lot of public backlash recently after he criticised King Paluta for his singing vocals in Makoma. He said that the musician's voice ruined the song.
KOKA also emphasised that the musician needed a voice coach to help him transition from rapping to singing in his song, as his voice was not suited to singing.
