Bathong, Elon Musk, and Donald Trump's beef had many South African celebrities sharing their opinions regarding their fallout on social media, and the internationally acclaimed music producer DJ Shimza was one of them.

Recently, the star, who celebrated his 36th birthday on Thursday, 15 May 2025, emphasised how strong South African ancestors are, as Donald Trump and Elon Musk exchanged insults.

Shimza wrote:

"South African ancestors are strong."

See the post below:

The beef began after Elon Musk announced his departure in a post on his social media platform X (formerly Twitter), saying his time as a Special Government Employee had come to an end. He thanked Trump for the opportunity and said he believed DOGE would grow stronger over time and become a way of life across government departments.

He said that Trump's bill would undermine the work of his department and would increase the deficit. Musk also complained that his department had become a scapegoat for dissatisfaction with the administration. He made this announcement on Wednesday, 28 May 2025.
