Big Xhosa Quits Hip Hop After Claiming Angel Took Him to ‘Illuminati Department’
Controversial rapper Big Xhosa has stunned fans by announcing that he is stepping away from hip hop.
He cited a spiritual vision that he says changed his entire outlook on the music industry.
Big Xhosa took to Instagram to share an emotional video in which he described being visited by an angel who took him to a dark and mysterious place he called “Kwakwam,” which he claimed is a department of the Illuminati.
“There’s a new journey I’m taking, and I was shown a vision.
The angel took me to a place called Kwakwam, which is a department of the Illuminati. I’m even shaking a little bit talking about it,” Big Xhosa said.
“Cassper Nyovest’s Beard Turned Into Snakes”
In the same video, Big Xhosa claimed that he saw several prominent South African musicians in disturbing, unrecognizable forms. One of them, he alleged, was Cassper Nyovest, whom he said was sitting on a throne.
“I saw someone sitting on the throne, it’s Cassper, and he has this shiny beard. As I get closer, I see that the beard has turned into snakes.
“In Kwakwam, Cassper’s name is Ginon,” he said.
“Usimamane Said His Real Name Was uSatan”
The rapper went on to describe another encounter with an artist he referred to as Usimamane—a name many believe refers to another well-known local rapper.
“Someone touched me and asked, ‘Why are you here?’ I turned around and saw Usimamane.
I said his name, and he responded, ‘No, no! Do not call me Usimamane. My real name in Kwakwam is uSatan.’”
Mixed Reactions on Social Media
Social media exploded with reactions following Big Xhosa’s video. Some users accused the rapper of chasing clout or “having a trip,” while others couldn’t help but laugh at the bizarre tale.
A few, however, argued that the story was so detailed and specific that it couldn’t be entirely dismissed.
Whether viewed as a warning, an artistic statement, or something else entirely, Big Xhosa’s sudden departure from the genre has sparked widespread debate—and left many wondering what comes next for the polarizing artist.
