"Mbona walikua wanasema unanitukana?" KRG questioned, to which Stevo responded, "Si unajua ni hali ya mtandao." (You know how it is on the internet).
KRG said he forgave Stevo for their past conflicts, jokingly attributing it to Stevo's financial struggles.
"Lakini mimi nilikuasamehea kwa sababu niliona ulianguka chini, maisha ikakulemea," KRG noted.
Loosely translated as;
"But I forgave you because I saw you fell, life became tough for you."
"I finally met Stivo Simple Boy kumbe you guys wanted me to beat him bure tu!!!! Yeye Hana maneno na MSANII WA RAIS KABISA!!!! From now onwards we are friends and you guys should support his hustle hadi akue stable truly," KRG wrote on his Instagram.
Loosely translated;
"I finally met Stivo Simple Boy, turns out you guys just wanted me to beat him for nothing!!! He's a man of few words and a real artist!! From now on, we are friends, and you guys should support his hustle until he becomes stable, truly."
In a gesture of goodwill, KRG also gifted Stevo Simple Boy Ksh5,000 promising to send him more via Mpesa.
KRG, Stevo beef
Stevo had previously referred to KRG as a "vixen," suggesting that he wasn't fit to be a musician but would well as a video vixen.
Stevo even went as far as stating that he wanted KRG to feature as a vixen in one of his music videos.
"KRG is not a musician; he is a vixen. If you do collabo with Konshens...with a Jamaican artist, I don't care...You are a vixen. So make one day, you come to vixen in my music," he told bloggers.
In response, KRG hit out at Stevo saying his music was 'trashy.'
Speaking to a local YouTuber, the "Mambo imechemka" crooner asserted that Stevo doesn't measure up to him.
He likened Stevo's musical style to songs sung by young children in primary school.
The singer further pointed out that Kenyans only considered Stevo more talented because of his unconventional appearance, suggesting that without it, Stevo wouldn't garner as much attention.
Additionally, he warned against those advising Stevo to engage in a feud with him, cautioning that such actions could bring temporary fame but would also come with negative consequences such as depression and financial instability.
Addressing criticisms about calling Stevo a scarecrow, the singer defended himself by drawing parallels to insults he has faced, particularly regarding his skin colour.
He questioned why certain remarks, like calling someone "light skin," are not considered offensive, yet when he responds in kind, he's labelled as the aggressor.
He also challenged derogatory nicknames he's been given, like "KRG the donkey," questioning their accuracy and fairness.
"We ukitafta beef na KRG ntakupea hio clout but clout yangu inakuja na maugonjwa yake, depression, low self-esteem, inaleta instability kwa mfuko yako," he stated.
"Mtu akisema mwanaume mgani ni lightskin, hio si matusi? Kwa nini mkianza matusi alafu niwatusi mnasema mimi ni mbaya? Kwa nini kina Kibe wananiitanga mimi KRG the donkey
do I look like a donkey?" he posed.
