Blxckie Releases “Karmaa” Music Video and Clarifies Lucasraps Dispute. Blxckie has unveiled the music video for his latest single, Karmaa. This track candidly tackles the ongoing tension with Lucasraps, providing insight into the situation from his viewpoint.
Blxckie Releases “Karmaa” Music Video and Clarifies Lucasraps DisputeReleased on March 28, 2026, through his Somnyama Music Entertainment label, the song features a pulsating log-drum-heavy amapiano beat crafted by B4BRADLEY. It transforms personal conflicts into an engaging track that has stirred discussion within the Mzansi hip hop community.
The dynamic between these two Durban artists has been marked by subtle jabs and indirect remarks for years. Lucasraps played a significant role in helping Blxckie early in their careers, and they collaborated in the studio frequently. However, Blxckie has emerged as one of South Africa’s most innovative and commercially successful artists. Reports of their fallout suggest issues related to ego clashes, uncredited work, and a delayed joint project. Karmaa aims to lay out the full narrative.
The song begins with a sample of Kenny Smith’s notable phrase, “Let’s go home, ladies and gentlemen,” indicating that Blxckie is bringing the conflict to a conclusion on his own terms. The opening lines set a direct tone:
“Pullin’ out all the stops, I’m the main pliers. Since I took a step, had that same fire. Riky said it best, we’s not dyin’.”
He then delves into his main issues. Blxckie asserts that he significantly contributed to Lucasraps’ rise, only to see it undermined by ego. He characterizes the highly anticipated 031 To The World project as unsuccessful and accuses Lucasraps of allowing pride to hinder their collaboration.
“031 To The World was a flop, and we all know it. Your ego, it took over. Couldn’t even have it on the album; you couldn’t control it. Hit me for the 2.0, I’m like, ‘Alright, bitch nigga.’ Let me help you get some fuckin’ motion and get bigger.”
The music video adopts a minimalist yet compelling aesthetic. It portrays Blxckie in a dimly-lit studio in Durban, interspersed with archival footage reflecting their shared experiences. There are glimpses of empty pools, unfinished tracks, and moments of tension. At one point, older studio clips flash before switching back to Blxckie delivering pointed lines with sharp clarity.
“Only to find out this nigga been lyin’. Manager told me, ‘This nigga left, that’s how he feel.’ Opened the ‘gram to find out he signed a whole deal. Got a crib, got a car, well, that’s what we see. Wasn’t even mad at that, like bro livin’ the dream. Then we findin’ out the crib was Nandi’s all along. Shout out to the queen, she really saw the vision young.”
Blxckie further expands on the supposed betrayal, indicating that Lucasraps was intended to seek his input on songwriting but instead communicated indirectly through Kindlynxsh (Nxsh) and attempted to misrepresent their origins.
“You ain’t find me, I found you, bitch nigga. Geek Fam should be the only one talkin’ like you, nigga.”
The weightiest moment appears towards the conclusion. Blxckie references Riky Rick, a revered figure in the Durban music scene who passed away in 2022. He claims Riky warned him about Lucasraps before his death.
“You would be terrified about the shit Riky told me about you before he left, nigga.”
This line resonates deeply, intertwining personal history with lingering sorrow.
Following recent podcast discussions from Lucasraps, where he spoke about his efforts to reconcile, cited scripture, and expressed vulnerability, Blxckie’s verses serve as a precise rebuttal that does not accommodate the timeline of others.
Hip hop aficionados are already likening this conflict to legendary South African feuds. Such moments often drive artists to enhance their artistry. After his own notable achievements, Blxckie presents Karmaa as a form of resolution. He aims for this track to finally settle the matter.
As for Lucasraps, it remains uncertain whether he will respond with a counter song or maintain silence. For the moment, Blxckie has adeptly transformed his experiences into impactful lyrics, infused with amapiano rhythm, and delivered visuals that resonate with audiences.
Listen to Karmaa on all major streaming platforms and view the official video on YouTube. The whispers from Durban’s studios have now become public. The entire community is observing closely.
