• Nota Baloyi clears up the air surrounding his relationship with Professor Rosina Mamokgethi Phakeng
• Music executive claims there’s no animosity between them, but gently critiques her fashion choices
• This comes after Phakeng faced backlash for supporting Chris Brown despite her advocacy for women’s rights

Alright, let’s break it down. Nota Baloyi recently stepped up to the mic to clarify his relationship with none other than Professor Rosina Mamokgethi Phakeng. In his own words, there’s absolutely no beef between them. But that doesn’t mean he’s holding back entirely—he had some thoughts about her fashion choices. Let’s dive in.

Nota Baloyi Speaks His Mind About Professor Phakeng

Even amidst his ongoing assault trial, Nota Baloyi isn’t shy about addressing topics that matter to him. Recently, he took the time to set the record straight about his relationship with Professor Rosina Mamokgethi Phakeng. Now, here’s the deal: earlier, the esteemed scholar had made some comments directed at Nota after a case was filed against him. Her words seemed to carry a certain tone, almost taunting his plea for prayers:

“No wickedness goes unpunished, and your choices shape your future. Take this time to reflect and grow. We will be there.”

But Nota? He’s not one to stay silent. Speaking to Sunday World, he made it crystal clear: there’s no bad blood between him and the Professor. However, he did take a moment to express his thoughts on her personal style. “There is no beef between Phakeng and I,” Nota said. “I just want her to dress appropriately for her age and not act like she’s trying to thirst-trap men.”

This all stems from some of Phakeng’s recent photos, where she’s been showing off her stunning physique in outfits that, according to Nota and some social media users, might not align with her public persona as a respected academic. It’s sparked quite the conversation online, with opinions flying left and right.

Professor Phakeng Under Fire Over Chris Brown Support

Here’s the twist: it seems Nota isn’t the only one the Professor has on her hands. She’s also been getting heat for her public support of Chris Brown. Let me explain. The “Fab Academic” recently announced that she’d be attending the singer’s now-sold-out concert. Now, here’s the kicker: Chris Brown, as many of you know, has a history of domestic violence allegations. This support didn’t sit well with anti-GBV activists, including Women For Change, who launched a petition to cancel the concert entirely.

The petition sparked heated debates across South Africa. While some agreed with the activists’ stance, many others dismissed the call, arguing it was unfair to boycott the concert. In fact, plenty of South Africans vowed to attend the show, rain or shine. It’s a complicated situation, to say the least, but it highlights the ongoing conversation around supporting artists with questionable pasts.

Nota Baloyi’s Father Stands by His Son

On a slightly different note, Nota Baloyi’s father has been a rock for his son during this tumultuous time. In a previous report, Briefly News shared a heartfelt statement from him, reaffirming his unwavering support for Nota during the assault trial. He firmly stated that the accusations against his son were false and expressed his eagerness to uncover the truth. It’s clear that family ties remain strong, even in the face of adversity.
