“Whatever he says online, I know where it's from. He’s still hurt from the case that we won against him, you know, and it was just unfortunate. I wouldn't have wanted to do that. But I feel like now every day when someone keeps saying the same thing about you, it forces your hand,” DJ Shimza said.
DJ Shimza joked that Nota Baloyi still owes him R50, and they couldn’t attach his assets because he doesn’t even have a fridge.
“Yeah, it's done. He paid, but he still owes me. He paid me, but it was short by like 5tiger (R50). At least now he's getting paid here. We had to take it because he doesn’t even have a fridge, so we couldn't take anything from his place,” he added.

“To those who think Nota is really broke, go listen to Kwesta's interview with Slikour. Nota is using his mother's company to operate. I guess y'all know the Hakimi situation. The people we think are crazy are wise sometimes.”
@IAmExcellent_ said:
“Somebody tell that fraud called Nota to buy a fridge and STOP talking about people's names to be heard always because when he talks about his, nobody listens...🚮”
