The incident reportedly took place at Baloyi’s home on September 5, 2024, according to Bokaba’s statement. Entertainment critic Musa Khawula revealed the allegations, which sparked significant public attention online.

This case has drawn widespread reactions, especially given Baloyi’s ongoing involvement in other legal and music-related controversies
Actress and singer Itumeleng Bokaba, known for her work on Rhythm City, recently accused music executive Nota Baloyi of rape. The allegations surfaced after controversial commentator Musa Khawula brought the issue to public attention, even though Bokaba had initially hoped to keep it private. Bokaba stated that the incident occurred before her dispute over compensation for her contribution to the hit song Mayibabo. She has expressed her trust in the justice system and refrained from making further public comments regarding the case.
In response, Nota Baloyi denied the allegations, claiming their encounter was consensual. He has also filed for a protection order against Bokaba, asserting that she initiated the sexual relations between them.
