A social media user caused one heck of a stir on Twitter when he shared a list of the best hip-hop artists in South Africa.

The list features artists like AKA, Nasty C, Rouge and Sho Madjozi. Right at the top is PRO, and while no one is debating his position, the rest of the list isn't sitting right with music lovers.

Some controversy is to be expected - everyone wants their favourite artist at the top, but the disapproval this list received was almost unanimous.
