Another tweep asked if the dancer had a hand in the robbery at Afrotainment in June. He offered a reward of R20,000. Could his post hint at him also suspecting the dancer?

DJ Tira ignores music critiques

In a previous report from Briefly News, music producer DJ Tira released his summer song Siyaphothula. However, before the song's release, there was drama associated with him after he was criticised for excluding Mgilane.

The DJ was not bothered. He said he does not care because he will not be told by social media followers how to make music.
