Briefly News earlier reported that believe it or not, Rasta the Artist has once again managed to get South Africans shaking with laughter and disbelief after sharing yet another one of his infamous paint jobs on his increasingly busy Twitter page.
This time, the person who got the Rasta treatment was popular South African DJ, DJ Shimza - and one look at the painting shows that the portrait looks far from the real and quite handsome DJ Shimza.
"Real Art Sculptured To Amaze," Rasta quite confidently captioned the upload on the app.
It did not take long for Rasta's many online South African critics to start sharing their harsh and sometimes hilarious thoughts on the portrait.
