Is Areece Self-centered Or Just More Conscious?

Areece, also affectionately known as  Lehlogonolo Ronald Mataboge (born March 27, 1997) is a South African rapper, singer and songwriter who has gained significant success in the music industry. He has been both praised for his music talent and criticized for being self-centered in his lyrics and behavior. But the question is: is he truly self-centered or is he just more conscious and "woke" than others? Firstly, it is important to understand what is meant by "woke" and how it relates to Areece. Being "woke" means being aware of social and political issues and actively striving to make a change. Areece has shown himself to be aware of the injustices and inequalities present in South Africa and beyond. In his music, he addresses issues such as police brutality, racism and the struggle of the working class. Therefore, it could be argued that Areece is indeed more conscious and "woke" than others who do not address such issue
