IDOLS winner Khaya Mthethwa's new single Move has caused a Twitter stir after rapper JR posted negative comments about the song.

The singer thinks Mthethwa's song is boring.

When radio personality Anele Mdoda twitted the lyrics of Mthethwa's song on her Twitter page recently, JR replied: "Mara ya boranyana neh?" (But it is a little boring).

Follow-up comments on the social site showcased both Mthethwa fans and haters .

Some tweets said JR had the right to freedom of speech and others criticised the rapper's comments.

"That's not hate, that's JR's opinion. I myself don't like it at all," went one FpKay.

"When a black person makes it to the top, we are quick to criticise . Khaya u rock," one DJ LadyZee defended her Idol.
