South African rapper Emtee, also known as Mthembeni Ndevu, is living in fear once more after receiving chilling death threats via his phone from an unknown person. The artist is now fearing for his life and seeks answers amid the disturbing messages and threats of violence.

 

Threats and Targeting:

Emtee’s safety concerns escalated when the unidentified sender specifically mentioned the date of 9th September, coinciding with his Emtee & Friends concert at Zone 6 in Soweto. The threats leave Emtee anxious about his safety during the event, as he believes someone is plotting to harm him at the show. He previously shared receiving threats following the tragic shooting of rapper AKA and his former manager, Tebello ‘Tibz’ Motsoane, earlier this year. The unknown person has made references to DJ Sumbody, further alarming Emtee.

Denial of Allegations:

The rapper strongly denies owing money to anyone and disassociates himself from any criminal activities, insisting that he is not involved in any illegal dealings. Emtee expresses frustration at being targeted and blackmailed for a massive sum of R25 million, which he does not possess. He states that he has never received any financial support from the person making the threats and emphasizes that he does not even know the individual in question.

Emtee acknowledges the seriousness of the situation and the need for personal security. Despite blocking the number and deleting messages, the threats persist with different phone numbers, causing the rapper to fear for his life. He emphasizes the importance of safety for himself and fellow artists and highlights the necessity of investing in security to ensure their well-being.

Emtee’s case reflects a broader concern about the safety of public figures in the entertainment industry. Other artists, like Cassper Nyovest, have also taken proactive steps to enhance their security measures after DJ Sumbody’s tragic death. Personal safety is now a priority for many artists who face potential threats and risks while pursuing their careers.

As Emtee faces renewed death threats, the need for personal safety and security measures in the entertainment industry comes to the forefront. The distressing situation serves as a reminder of the risks public figures encounter and the importance of investing in their well-being. Emtee’s plea for answers and protection echoes the voices of other artists who share similar fears. As the entertainment industry evolves, ensuring the safety of its talented individuals must remain a paramount concern.
