Boohle Treated Me Like Sh*t’ – Bassie On Her Relationship With The Songstress. Basetsana Maluleka (22) well known as Bassie to her fans, is a vocalist and a musician who grew up in Windmill Park, Boksburg. Bassie started singing at a very tender age and was a cheerleader at the age of 12, then later became a full-time conductor in high school,(Sunward Park High).
While she was on MacG’s podcast and chill, the amapiano vocalist revealed that she is not in a good space with fellow songstress Boohle. This comes after MacG asked her to choose between Kamo Mphela and Boohle, of which Bassie did not hesitate to say Boohle must go. While it was questionable as to why she choose her considering that they are from the same hood (Vosloorus), Bassie explained her reason. “Boohle must go! Yes we are from the same kasi but she trated me like sh*t. I asked her nicely to come to my music video shoot, she agreed. We did a costume for her from scratch, on the day of the shoot she was not picking up her calls, and after many tries, her sister answered her phone and said ‘Boohle is sick’. She never spoke to me since that day. I was so hurt,” Bassie explained.
