Ngizwe Mchunu, a former radio DJ, has resorted to social media to slam Durban-born DJ and producer DJ Tira. Ngizwe Mchunu dragged the businessman for allegedly failing to uphold his vow to keep Mampintsha’s memory alive.
This comes after he mentioned at the 17th Metro FM trophies how AKA’s family accepted his four posthumous trophies and later rejoiced at his burial with close friends and family.
“Makhoya Bearings (DJ Tira) I am highly disappointed in you. You and that pi*s-tasting drink of yours that you give us to drink. DJ Tira you are out of order, you were supposed to do what you promised Mampintsha at his funeral. You donated your Song Of The Year award to Mampintsha. DJ Tira, you are cruel.
“You should accept when you have failed. This thing of you taking drugs is affecting you. You were supposed to do what you said you would at Mampintsha’s funeral. But you have not because you are a dog. You have a case in heaven. You are full of rubbish. I am not afraid of you. You are bulls*it.”
Song of the Year, Best Duo or Group, and Best Kwaito / Gqom Song were all nominated for Big Nuz.
Babes had requested her supporters to vote for the couple in order to make Shimora proud. She stated on Facebook Live:
“Siya vota (we are voting). Please vote for Big Nuz. Please make sure you vote for Big Nuz. Guys, please do me this favor and vote. I will dance. They’ve been nominated in best duo, best kwaito/gqom, and Song of the Year. Please do this for my husband if he were here he would’ve been happy.”
At Shimora’s funeral, Babes asked Tira to not abandon her. “Thank you, Tira for loving my husband and Danger thank you. Tira please do not abandon me and you Danger,” she said.
Tira promised that he would do just that, “Babes must go back to the top of the charts. When she joined the music industry she was charging R100,000 per gig. You [Babes] should not be comfortable [with earning less] and you need to get out of your comfort zone if you want to go back to the top. You need to work hard and focus. Also, we still have Sponge [Babes’ child] to raise because Mampintsha is no longer,” he said.
