Rapper Octopizzo seems to have joined in on the ongoing beef between his arch-enemy Khaligraph Jones and Tanzanians over who can rap better.
Octo took to his tweeter page (X) to post a cryptic message to a rapper he failed to mention. in the message, he claimed that the rapper still uses clout and fake fights to promote himself even though he has been in the industry for over ten years.

Kenyans believe that the rapper is talking about Khalighph, AKA Papa Jones. Papa Jones is currently embroiled in a beef with Tanzanian artists after he proclaimed himself the king of rap. he said that he is known for his rap in Kenya and Nigeria and is ready to take over the Tanzanian rap industry, giving them 24 hours to respond with a better rap.
"Naskia Tanzania Ma Rapper wameshika Moto, Yall have 24 hrs to go to the the studio and Record, na msiniletee amapiano, Bomboclat, Ingieni kwa Kiwanja tupimane nguvu, You will respect The OG.." he posted
Tanzanians were unhappy with Papa Jones's claims and are fighting back. Bongo artist Harmonize was the first to criticize Jones, saying he should not bring down other artists, saying he is a small artist compared to Tanzanian rappers.
Rosa Ree has addressed Jones directly in an official single, imploring the Kenyan singer to pay heed. Rosa Ree's extraordinary talent has garnered her a nomination for AFRIMMa Best Female Rap Act in 2023.
