Amanda Black Speaks Out On Sjava Allegedly Raping Her

Yoh, the internet was wildin’ this weekend! Award-winning singer Amanda Black found herself caught up in some messy drama after social media users started linking her to sexual assault allegations against rapper Sjava. But sis wasn’t having it and stepped up to shut down the fake news real quick!

Where Did the Rumours Even Come From?

It all started when an old tweet, allegedly from an account under Amanda’s name, resurfaced, claiming that Sjava had raped her. The tweet spread like wildfire, with social media detectives jumping to conclusions and fuelling the narrative.

And then there was an X post with Amanda Black performing captioned: “Amanda Black breaks down on stage while performing, thinking of how Sjava raped her.”

Given Sjava’s history with Lady Zamar’s past allegations, the streets were quick to believe the claims. But Amanda was not about to let her name be dragged into the mix!

Amanda Black Speaks Out!

Taking to her Instagram account, Amanda set the record straight and let people know she had nothing to do with those accusations.

“Hi everyone, Sjava did not sexually assault me. I have no idea where these rumors came from, but they are not true and did not come from me,” she wrote.

And just like that, she put an end to the speculation!

Fans React to the Shocking Allegations

Amanda’s statement had the internet shook. Some were relieved she addressed the rumours, while others were disappointed at how easily misinformation spreads online.

@ThandoS_14: “Social media is dangerous! People really believed it without questioning anything. This is why we need to verify sources before spreading things.”

@Prince_Kayman: “Glad she cleared this up. But why are people so quick to destroy someone’s name like this?!”

@MusaTheDon: “The internet is a crazy place. One fake tweet and your name is ruined forever.”

Sjava Keeps It Moving!

Meanwhile, Sjava—who has already been through public scrutiny with the Lady Zamar case—has not addressed this new drama.

For those who forgot, Lady Zamar accused him of rape in 2017, but the case was later dismissed due to lack of evidence. Still, the situation had a major impact on both artists’ careers.

What do y’all think about this drama? Should Sjava respond, or is silence the best move? Let’s talk in the comments!
