Zethembe's Ngiyaz'fela becomes a sensation and Jub Jub jumps on it

He lamented that the song hit over one million streams, equating to around R80K, which would provide him with much financial relief as a struggling student with no NSFAS backing.

Meanwhile, Jub Jub receives royalties for the song and has blocked Zethembe on all social media platforms. He says he regrets trusting him instead of signing a contract.

"I've been receiving DMs from lawyers, but they want money upfront to open a file before working on my case, and at the moment I don't even have funding.

"I don't even have food at my place as we speak, but I have a big song on the internet, so it's bad."

"@official_jubjub Do what's right bro, what happened to your ubuntu?"

@Diks remembered:

"Oh this is so sad, but Jub Jub is not a nice person. He didn't pay the guy who bought his suit on 'Ngokhole'."
