Lloyiso frowns at being compared with Sam Smith.
Few hours after appreciating Chris Brown’s co-sign, the SA star got angered by a Twitter user.

In an attempt to eulogise the singer, the tweep wrote: “@Lloyiso_rsa is like the African Sam Smith.”
A few other tweeps slammed him and he tried justifying his tweet.
“You most definitely misunderstood me, I meant he was as good as Sam Smith.”
Reacting to the comparison, Lloyiso threatened to block the tweep.
I’m gonna block you 😕 https://t.co/s4gQS7uKrm

However, another tweep dug out an old tweet of the singer about the international musician.
Lloyiso didn’t give up as he defended himself.
“Like and a version of are 2 different things, it’s an inferiority complex to say “African version” of any artist . I’m a big fan of Sam Smith and “like” him I want to be great! This mentality needs to stop,” the singer wrote.
