Gaza slim released a statement counteracting Popcaan's words.
Gaza Slim, in her release, stated that the release put out by Popcaan "is nothing but lies in an attempt at keeping the support of Gaza fans, and by Gaza, I mean Kartel because he is Gaza". Slim went on to say that although Kartel had invested his time and money into Popcaan's career, following his incarceration, Popcaan immediately sought bookings from elsewhere.
