DJ Sbu’s recent scruffy appearance has reignited discussions on social media, prompting speculation about its connection to the unpaid royalty allegations brought against him and former co-executive TK Nciza by singer Zahara.
Tweeps couldn’t resist trolling the Mofaya founder as a picture circulated showing him in a disheveled poncho and untidy dreadlocks during an episode of his podcast, “Hustler’s Corner,” featuring an interview with fellow podcasters MacG and Solo
While some Twitter users drew comparisons between DJ Sbu and American rappers Jay Z and J Cole, others surmised that Zahara’s ancestors were somehow involved, suggesting a connection between his appearance and the ongoing feud with the “Loliwe” hitmaker.
The discord between Zahara and DJ Sbu dates back years, triggered by Zahara’s accusations of exploitation against DJ Sbu and TK Nciza, who were her record label executives at TS Records. Zahara claimed she did not receive royalties for her acclaimed debut album, “Loliwe,” despite its significant success.
In July of the previous year, DJ Sbu refuted these claims on Twitter, asserting that Zahara’s money had always gone to her. Zahara countered, accusing him of falsehoods and asserting that her music was being sold on digital platforms without her knowledge.
The ongoing feud saw DJ Sbu defending his integrity, emphasizing his self-made success, and denying any attempts to exploit others for personal gain. Zahara, facing financial challenges, pointed fingers at DJ Sbu and Nciza during her hardships.
In this ongoing royalties dispute, Twitter has consistently sided with Zahara, creating an online backdrop that amplifies the tension between the two parties.
