“Dj Sbu my brada, majority of South Africans can't afford to trade Bitcoin as it's now very high risky to invest on. Please generalise the entire Crypto market so that people can understand that there's a low risk option to invest on small coins.”

@kasienova said:

“The question is, which Crypto platform isn't a scam? I know so many people who have been scammed.”

@bighomiesleeq said:

“Crypto isn’t for people that are still struggling.”

“This has the potential of ending in tears for many.”

DJ Sbu finally addresses Zahara’s allegations

Briefly News reported that DJ Sbu hit out at Zahara’s recent comments about his record label defrauding her. The media mogul has finally spoken out against the allegations that TS Records stripped the songstress dry.

DJ Sbu dropped a bombshell when he revealed that it was actually Zahara who owed TS Records money.

"I miss you Bulelwa (Zahara) but what I don't like is when she goes out saying I owe her money because you know that's a lie. If you go down to the books at Universal Music she actually owes us money and she does not even know that.”

According to Sbu, Zahara was given half and the record label took the other half.

Sbu went on to say that when they parted ways with Zahara, she was a millionaire but doesn’t know where all that ended up.
