• The two have had a simmering rivalry over the years.

Once again, rapper Khaligraph Jones has spoken about the musical rivalry between famous Kenyan rapper, Octopizzo and him.

Speaking in an interview with comedian Obinna, Khaligraph said that he had no problem or grudge against Octopizzo.

He said that he has now reached the age of 33 and does not have time to beef with Octopizzo saying that whenever he sees him he forces himself to greet him regardless of whether he responds to the greeting or not.

"That man has never liked me, you know there's just someone you feel like you can't love and you can't blame them, you were just born that way," he opined.

Before adding,

"I saw in an interview that he said that he doesn't like the way I dress. I understand him because I don't feel like I feel that way about anyone else, but I understand him because even if I were him, I wouldn't like Khaligraph," he said.

"I have no enmity with him, I don't have that time if you see I have reached the age of 33, now things started in the past until now where and where...when I meet Octo I greet him 'Niaje'. If he wants him to answer or not, I still greet him," Khaligraph added.

However, Khaligraph also praised Octopizzo for having a great social media presence saying,

"He does a good job, he has very good social media pages. Octo is a very good model, and I respect him a lot for that work. The guy came from Kibera and I respect him a lot because he came from a very difficult environment but let's leave the matter of who knows how to rap to better than the other," Khaligraph said.
