Does Jay-Z Just Want to be South African?
Despite the follow likely being an accident (and since unfollowed), this isn’t the first time the rapper has given his ‘only follow’ to a South African. Many recalled the global star’s last big follow a few years back, which again, did not go to Beyoncé, but to South Africa’s Thule Mgaga.
