King Paluta addresses KOKA's criticisms

He explained that there are circumstances in which songs that gain popularity and receive constant airplay can negatively affect people's perceptions of them.

"I don't know the kind of mood KOKA was in when he made those comments about my vocal ability. You can sometimes get annoyed with a particular song when you hear it being played everywhere you go. Maybe he was annoyed with the song when he sat there to make his comments."

King Paluta noted that many of his colleagues, famous for their singing prowess in the industry, have commended and hailed his vocal ability, so he finds it hard to understand KOKA's criticism.

"Our own industry singers have called to tell me I don't sound like a rapper trying to sing. They have recognised me as a singer, so they don't understand why it took me a long time to transition into singing. I don't know what senior man (KOKA) is talking about."
