King Monada has sparked controversy after a video of him hitting a fan during a recent performance went viral.
The video, shared by entertainment commentator Musa Khawula on Twitter, has garnered nearly 70,000 views, igniting a heated discussion online.
In the clip, the musician can be seen slapping a fan who reached out to him during his performance.
Reactions to the incident have been mixed. Some fans rushed to King Monada’s defense, with one commenting, “Let’s forgive him, maybe he thought the fan was trying to steal his new car keys. Let’s wait for his side of the story.”
Others, however, were far less forgiving, with remarks like, “Unnecessary behaviour, the guy just wanted to give him a hand” and “Does he know that whatever he owns comes from the pockets of these fans? If he continues like this, he’ll end up a street kid.”
The incident has stirred conversations around respect between artists and their supporters.
