South African hip hop rapper A-Reece had many of his fans worried about him after he shared a cryptic post on his social media page.

Recently, an online user boyzn_uwandile posted a screenshot of the Mgani hitmaker's now-deleted post, where he wrote how he took the goofy rap game way too seriously, then he should've.

In this post, it seems like the rapper who showed love to the Amapiano genre in June 2025 was reflecting on or even regretting his intense approach to the hip hop industry, calling it silly but with a bit of disappointment in his words. Many netizens have speculated that he may be hinting at the frustration or burnout within the SA rap game.

Netizens react to A-Reece's cryptic post

Shortly after the post was shared on social media, many couldn't help but wonder if everything is okay with A-Reece, as they flooded the comment section with their reactions.

Here are some of the comments below:

@hiimmm25 said:

"He did way too much for the rap game on a global level. His numbers compare to some of the other rap guys out there. I've been telling others that rap is a sub-genre of Hip Hop, so the numbers won't be the same at any point, but the boy outshines."

@TeeTouchza questioned:

"Was allowing his girlfriend to manage his career also part of taking it too seriously?"
