Major League, a high-flying DJ duo, turned to Twitter to call out township life for what they believe it is: toxic.
They added that people don’t talk about how life is in the “kasi,” calling it “artificial” and full of jealously, peer pressure, and hostility, among other things.
They wrote in a recent tweet: “We don’t talk enough about how toxic staying ko kasi is!!… Fake life, Jealousy, Competition, Bolotjana, Peer Pressure, Negativity the list is endless…When you get means, move out ko kasi!!!”

Some fans agreed with the tweet, but other fans were furious, and some even laughed at the DJs and asked how they knew about the “kasi” when they had grown up in London.
@Boity_MM tweeted: “Nahhhhh we live ko kasi and we real. You guys come from wherever you come from get ko kasi and act like you from Kasi. Stop it.”

And in turn, nabo they’ll also help the next person. That way you create a cycle of always helping the next person. If you just leave, eKasi will always stay toxic.“

@Hlabalingene_ simply responded: “Focus on yourself bro.”
Okay you have a point, those are the issues ko kasi, but if we all move out when we get money how are we going to change kasi? What about the people we leaving behind that would also like to experience a better life?

In the past few years, the DJ duo has had a lot of success with their music.
Recently, during a live Balcony Mix Xperience show at Joburg’s Katy’s Palace, they set a new world record for the longest DJ set by a duo.
