Stevo Simple Boy and his manager Chingiboy Mstado have been at loggerheads for some time now even though the cause of their fallout is not clear.
The rapper blamed Mstado after he collapsed during a live broadcast on the night of March 16, 2024.
Simple Boy downplayed concerns about his health saying he only collapsed on stage because of stress brought about by his manager's departure.
He pleaded with his estranged manager to reconcile with him so that they could get back to working together.
"Meneja Rudi tupige kazi nimeishiwa na Nguvu watu wasitukosanishe. Stress inanipiga mpaka naanguka kwa stage Niki perfrom 😭😭😭 mnatakuniharibia mpaka manager," Stivo Simple Boy wrote in a post on Instagram.
"Rudi tupige kazi manager @chingiboy_mstado," the rapper added in another post.
Chingiboy Mstado took to social media on Friday, March 29, 2024, to post a cryptic message weeks after Simple Boy reached out to him to mend fences.
Without mentioning names, Mstado lamented that he was tired of helping someone who refuses to be assisted.
The manager noted that he was being fought by other parties and went on to stress that he was weary of stepping on a thorn.
Mstado further stated that he had quit because of the aforementioned issues.
“Kusaidia mtu hataki kujisaidia pia ni ngumu. Utasaidia mtu ukiumia yeye ako tu sawa. Napigwa vita na familia na bibi ya mtu aah nimechoka kukanyaga mwiba, uchungu umezidi, nina quit ndio manake,” Chingiboy Mstado wrote.
