In 2017 Macky 2 released a song titled | |||
Treason <ref name=LS>{{cite web|title= MACKY 2 FIRES BACK AT HIS TILIZON SONG CRITICS |url= http://zedhypemag.com/macky-2s-fires-back-tilizon-song-critics/ |publisher= zedhypemag.com |accessdate=2 May 2017}}</ref> produced by [[Shom- C]]<ref>{{cite web|title= Macky 2 Tilizon (Prod. by | |||
Shom- C)|url= https://zedhypemag.com/macky-2-tilizon-prod-shom-c/|publisher= zedhypemag |accessdate= 2 May 2017}}</ref>. In the song, Macky 2 depicts Treason as an act | |||
by a side chick who wants to take over from his wife but off course creatively manages to blend in the Motorcade issue and everything that Transpired during this year [[Kuomboka Ceremony]]. However, Macky 2 does not end there as he also mentions several issues aligned with [[UPND]] including the “ Pakalitente ” slogan. | |||
The Tilizon song is a dance song with the concept coming from the trending Treason saga Involving [[UPND]] President [[Hakainde Hichilema]]. This has led to many listeners thinking he was actually mocking the | |||
UPND leader. | |||
