SOUTH AFRICA – Controversial Limpopo rapper Shebeshxt has once again found himself in the spotlight and not for good reason.
A video of Shebeshxt engaging in an altercation involving a large knife is currently circulating on social media.
In the video, the rapper, real name Lehlogonolo Katlego Chauke, is seen inside an entertainment venue.
The audio of the argument is unclear, but Shebeshxt appears to be aggravated as he unzips his Nike jacket pulling out a large object appearing to be a knife, and lunges it at the victim.
The video has since gone viral with many questioning the controversial rapper’s actions.

Many suspect that the victim in the video is a fan, which has raised the question of how an artist treats his fans so violently and continues to get bookings.
In February, Shebeshxt was in hot water in the eyes of the public court, after he was seen in a video slapping a man attempting to film a video of him.
After the video sparked outrage on social media, Shebeshxt took to his Facebook timeline to warn his fans to stop provoking him.
“This thing of yours of hitting my car with beer bottles, knocking on my window, insulting me, impressing people who can’t help you and embracing me without knowing you is going to cause a problem,” he said loosely translated.
