Nota apparently walked up to Stogie T at an event because someone had told him Stogie was looking for him.
Nota went on to claim that Stogie T took the first swing and that is what led to the fight. He also made allegations that Stogie T assaulted a woman a few weeks prior to the incident in question.

In his posts, Nota added: “Yes, it’s true, Stogie T thought he could rumble with me … I put him down fast and pinned him to the ground, and I thought about breaking his nose, but on second thought, I thought it was good. Enough to have him enjoy the rest of the party with a ripped shirt. Why would you swing on me while I’m wearing my platinum edition FUBU x ALI?”

Following the damning statements made by Nota, Stogie T released a statement that addressed what went down over the weekend and the allegations of abuse leveled in the social media posts.
“I have come to accept that people will either love or reject what I produce. Nota Baloyi has made a name for himself by slandering various creatives in the arts and culture space, with the particular vitriol reserved for me.
“He has lied about encounters, charged me with destroying culture, one time suggesting my mother was a corrupt public servant who cheated the state to prop up my European tours with Tumi and The Volume, and most recently, suggesting I am a woman beater.
“Yesterday, at an event touted as bringing hip hop together for the love of the culture, I was minding my own business when Nota encroached my section.
“I interpreted this as a provocation and gestured for him to leave and an unfortunate fracas ensued.
“I regret that it had to get to all that and would like to extend my deepest apologies to my wife, my family, my church, and the hip hop community.
“I try my utmost best to be respectful, but my dignity and family honour are red lines.
“I reserve the right to defend myself against clout chasing clown trying to violate me and my name!”
